send "keyUp" / "rawKeyUp" ?

[Richmond Mathewson]

Well . . .

That puts "q" into both fields with a US English keyboard layout . . .

&

ит АЛСО (whoops) it ALSO puts "q" into both fields with
a Bulgarian keyboard layout.

So "NBG" I'm afraid.

Thanks for the suggestion :-)

Richmond.

P.S. Had to change 'N' to 'M'.
