+<p>Key events are generated when a mobile device user presses one or more
+mobile device key buttons. The application framework delivers the event to
+the application that has focus. The <parmname>TKeyEvent</parmname> structure
+is used to contain the key event details delivered to the application. For
+more information on <parmname>TKeyEvent</parmname>, see <xref href="jar:GUID-35228542-8C95-4849-A73F-2B4F082F0C44.jar!/sdk/doc_source/reference/reference-cpp/Window_Server/TKeyEventStruct.html" format="application/java-archive"><parmname>TKeyEvent</parmname></xref>. </p>
+<p>The structure is as follows:</p>
+<codeblock id="GUID-467AB9BB-948F-49B6-A243-206314E90242" xml:space="preserve">struct TKeyEvent
+    {
+    TUint iCode;
+    TInt iScanCode;
+    TUint iModifiers; // State of modifier keys
+    TInt iRepeats; // Count of auto repeats generated
+    };
+</codeblock>
+<p>The following events are generated by means of a single key press and
+release:</p>
+<codeblock id="GUID-5FE1F179-8F7A-4653-9604-3CFC4B66AE33" xml:space="preserve">EEventKeyDown
+EEventKey
+EEventKeyUp
+
+</codeblock>
+<p>The first event indicates that a key has been pressed down. The second
+event indicates that a character has been received from the keyboard. The
+third event is sent when the button has been released. These events are described
+in the <parmname>iCode</parmname> and <parmname>iSCanCode</parmname> members
+of <parmname>TKeyEvent</parmname>.</p>
+<p>For more information on possible data contained in <parmname>EEventKey</parmname>,
+see <xref href="jar:GUID-35228542-8C95-4849-A73F-2B4F082F0C44.jar!/sdk/doc_source/reference/reference-cpp/Kernel_Architecture_2/e32keys.hGlobals.html#%3a%3aTKeyCode" format="application/java-archive"><parmname>TKeyCode</parmname></xref>.</p>
+<p>Key presses may be interpreted by a Front End Processor (FEP) and tied
+to specific key events. For example, if a mobile device user presses the <parmname>2</parmname> key
+twice, an active FEP could generate a key event code of <parmname>b</parmname>.</p>
+<p> For more information on FEPs, see <xref href="jar:GUID-35228542-8C95-4849-A73F-2B4F082F0C44.jar!/sdk/doc_source/guide/Application-Framework-subsystem-guide/fepbase/FrontEndProcessorOverview.guide.html#ApplicationFrameworkOverview%2eFrontEndProcessorOverview%2emain" format="application/java-archive">Front End Processor overview</xref>.</p>
