List of Virtual Key Codes

Following is a full list of VK codes that can be assigned to physical keys ("scan codes") in the Low-level editor.

The list is divided in two categories:

1. "Mappable" codes, to which Unicode characters can be assigned in the High-level editor

2. "Non-mappable" codes (modifiers, special keys)

"Mappable" codes

"Non-mappable" codes

*) VK_ICO_00 virtual code produces '00' (two zeros) when pressed. Windows does not allow mapping of arbitrary Unicode codepoints to this VK code.

**) "mouse button" quasi VK codes are generated by Windows when user clicks left/middle/right/X1/X2 mouse buttons. KbdEdit allows these codes to be assigned to physical keys, but such mappings make no sense: pressing a key with VK_LBUTTON assigned to it will NOT make Windows act as if physical mouse button was pressed.
