Description
Any UTF-8 character may be specified, however, if the server does not support native key events, it should simulate key strokes for a standard US keyboard layout. The Unicode Private Use Area code points, 0xE000-0xF8FF, are used to represent pressable, non-text keys (see table below).
(See Unicode document for information on Unicode characters)
