a keycode
a modifier state
active keyboard group
return location for keyval
return location for effective group
return location for level
return location for modifiers that were used to determine the group or level
true if there was a keyval bound to keycode/state/group.
Translates the contents of a gdk.event_key.EventKey into a keyval, effective group, and level.
Modifiers that affected the translation and are thus unavailable for application use are returned in consumed_modifiers.
The effective_group is the group that was actually used for the translation; some keys such as Enter are not affected by the active keyboard group. The level is derived from state.
consumed_modifiers gives modifiers that should be masked out from state when comparing this key press to a keyboard shortcut. For instance, on a US keyboard, the plus symbol is shifted, so when comparing a key press to a <Control>plus accelerator <Shift> should be masked out.
This function should rarely be needed, since gdk.event_key.EventKey already contains the translated keyval. It is exported for the benefit of virtualized test environments.
