For example, when the user types Ctrl+A, the character value is 0x01 (NUL).

When the character field of the event is ambiguous, this field contains the unicode value of the original character. For example, typing Ctrl+M or Return both result in the character '\r' but the keyCode field will also contain '\r' when Return was typed.
