[MIT-Scheme-devel] bucky bits vs control characters in X input events

[Taylor R Campbell]

Right now, Edwin's X interface explicitly discards the bucky bit for
control; instead it just uses the underlying control character, which
X automatically supplies, but this doesn't work for keys with no ASCII
control-character equivalents, to input which one must use the
explicit prefix (C-^ or C-z).  Is there a reason that Edwin doesn't
discard the control bit only if the underlying character is already a
control character?  Changing it to do this is trivial.
