A GdkKeymapKey is a hardware key that can be mapped to a keyval.
guint keycode;
the hardware keycode. This is an identifying number for a
physical key.
gint group;
indicates movement in a horizontal direction. Usually groups are used
for two different languages. In group 0, a key might have two English
characters, and in group 1 it might have two Hebrew characters. The Hebrew
characters will be printed on the key next to the English characters.
gint level;
indicates which symbol on the key will be used, in a vertical direction.
So on a standard US keyboard, the key with the number "1" on it also has the
exclamation point ("!") character on it. The level indicates whether to use
the "1" or the "!" symbol. The letter keys are considered to have a lowercase
letter at level 0, and an uppercase letter at level 1, though only the
uppercase letter is printed.
