List of keynames
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:
<key id="xxx">Action</key>
where xxx is the key code. You can get the key code by looking in xbmc.log. Enable debug logging then press the key a few times. Now look in xbmc.log for lines like:
DEBUG: SDLKeyboard: scancode: 31, sym: 115, unicode: 115, modifier: 0
The number after sym, i.e. 115 in this case, is the key code. This number is decimal not hex.
