The Key Enum is used to represent the many different keys a keyboard may have. Keys described here map to positions on a US keyboard layout. For example, the "A" key is always located to the right of Caps Lock, which a user of a French AZERTY keyboard would instead see as the "Q" key.
Note that many values are unused internally, and will therefore never be detected as "pressed".
