Keycodes don't match

[esperancaJS]

They don't match :

• on different listener events
• with keys from the browser

If you tell me a way to go about fixing this correctly I might be able to help.

In the README, when you press "d" the keycode is 46:
{ keychar: 'd', keycode: 46, rawcode: 8, type: 'keydown' }

When I press "d", the keycode I get is 32:
{ keycode: 32, rawcode: 2, type: 'keydown' }

Why? How can I convert a keycode or a rawcode to a char? Here is the values I have: (KC for keycode, RC for rawcode)

# KC RC
a 16 12
b 48 11
c 46 8
d 32 2
e 18 14
f 33 3
g 34 5
h 35 4
i 23 34
j 36 38
k 37 40
l 38 37
m 39 41
n 49 45
o 24 31
p 25 35
q 30 0
r 19 15
s 31 1
t 20 17
u 22 32
v 47 9
w 44 6
x 45 7
y 21 16
z 17 13

Thanks!

This data generate libuiohook try ask this question in this repo.
I don't control this data in my module. I think, it relate by OS and locale settings.

PS. This is key definition. Try research this file. May be it help you.

Though this thread is closed, I really thank @solderzzc for giving us a real keycode table. I appreciate it.
Now, I could build my keyboard/mouse event hooker.
Love you @WilixLead for implementing this fantastic iohook npm library.
