List of keynames

Monomartin: added advice to insert decimal number format

{{mininav|[[Development]]}}

This is a list of all the key names that can be used in keyboard.xml.

Note that even keys that aren't in the list can be used in
keyboard.xml with the syntax:

<pre><key id="xxx">Action</key></pre>

where xxx is the key code (as decimal number). You can get the key code by looking in
xbmc.log. [[Log File#Enable Debugging|Enable debug logging]] then press the key a few times. Now look
in xbmc.log for lines like:

<pre>DEBUG: SDLKeyboard: scancode: 2, sym: 49, unicode: 49, modifier: 0
DEBUG: CApplication::OnKey: 61537 pressed, action is Number1
</pre>

The number after ''CApplication::OnKey'', i.e. 61537 in this case, is the key code. This
number is decimal not hex.
