Keymap.getModifierMask

Returns the modifier mask the keymap's windowing system backend uses for a particular purpose. Note that this function always returns real hardware modifiers, not virtual ones (e.g. it will return GDK_MOD1_MASK rather than GDK_META_MASK if the backend maps MOD1 to META), so there are use cases where the return value of this function has to be transformed by gdk_keymap_add_virtual_modifiers() in order to contain the expected result.
