It refers to setkeycodes to assign them

Right, but that only permits to assign them usual meanings or simulating
insertion of a string on the current console. That doesn't permit to
increase the volume of the sound board or activate the wireless network
for instance.  BTW, Mario, I think your piece of code may be of use for
a lot of people for these examples and not only non-sighted users.

Yes, I am aware that this functionality could be useful as
a stand alone command line utility, I am still pondering
how to design its interface...

I wrote such a utility for myself a while back. I've put it here:

if you want to take a look at it.

I mapped keys for a console lock, volume, and various music player daemon client controls.
