Typing \ and Shift-\ on French keyboard, getting
KeyEvent{type=KEY_PRESSED, character=, text=*, code=ASTERISK}
KeyEvent{type=KEY_TYPED, character=*, text=, code=UNDEFINED}
KeyEvent{type=KEY_RELEASED, character=, text=*, code=ASTERISK}
KeyEvent{type=KEY_PRESSED, character=, text=, code=SHIFT, shift}
KeyEvent{type=KEY_PRESSED, character=, text=*, code=ASTERISK, shift}
KeyEvent{type=KEY_TYPED, character= µ, text=, code=UNDEFINED, shift}
KeyEvent{type=KEY_RELEASED, character=, text=*, code=ASTERISK, shift}
KeyEvent{type=KEY_RELEASED, character=, text=, code=SHIFT}
is this expected?
