~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are three key event types: ``press, repeat and release``. They are
reported (if requested) as a sub-field of the modifiers field (separated by a
colon). If no modifiers are present, the modifiers field must have the value
``1`` and the event type sub-field the type of event. The ``press`` event type
has value ``1`` and is the default if no event type sub field is present. The
``repeat`` type is ``2`` and the ``release`` type is ``3``. So for example::
reported (if requested ``0b10``) as a sub-field of the modifiers field
(separated by a colon). If no modifiers are present, the modifiers field must
have the value ``1`` and the event type sub-field the type of event. The
``press`` event type has value ``1`` and is the default if no event type sub
field is present. The ``repeat`` type is ``2`` and the ``release`` type is
``3``. So for example::
CSI key-code;1 # this is a press event
CSI key-code;1:1 # this is a press event
CSI key-code;1:2 # this is a repeat event
CSI key-code:1:3 # this is a release event
CSI key-code # this is a press event
CSI key-code;modifier # this is a press event
CSI key-code;modifier:1 # this is a press event
CSI key-code;modifier:2 # this is a repeat event
CSI key-code:modifier:3 # this is a release event
.. note:: Key events that result in text are reported as plain UTF-8 text, so
