In the dictionary:

rawKeyDown: Sent when the user presses any key.

rawKeyUp: Sent when the user releases any key that was pressed (other 
than a modifier key).
"If the message is sent as the result of typing something in a field, 
the rawKeyDown message is sent before the text is changed, and the 
rawKeyUp message is sent after the change has been made."
