| This appears to be the regular 'enter' key:
|
| KeyRelease event, serial 26, synthetic NO, window 0x1800001,
| root 0x3d, subw 0x0, time 3609619864, (75,141), root:(645,493),
| state 0x10, keycode 36 (keysym 0xff0d, Return), same_screen YES,
| " XLookupString gives 1 characters: "
|
| And this the numeric-keypad 'enter' key:
|
| KeyPress event, serial 26, synthetic NO, window 0x1800001,
| root 0x3d, subw 0x0, time 3609624233, (75,141), root:(645,493),
| state 0x10, keycode 108 (keysym 0xff8d, KP_Enter), same_screen
| YES,
| " XLookupString gives 1 characters: "
|
| They appear very similar. The 'keycode' is important, right ??

Yeah, the keycode is the number (everything in a computer is a number,
the key is how you interpret the number) that identifies the button on
your keyboard.
I don't know about the rest of that output, but it looks to me like it
is describing the window, etc, the event was sent to.
