I'm writing a GUI for a library and I need to translate key combinations like 
CTRL+Y from the QKeyEvent into the string "<CTRL>y"  

What I'm doing right now is testing the event->keyboardModifier() and adding 
that to the string, then adding event->text().  However, when a key like CTRL 
is down, event->text() for the above CTRL+Y gives me the string "\031", even 
though event->key() == Qt::Key_Y.  

How can I make event->key() and event->text() return the same thing in this 
case?  Thanks.
