Here's a simple program and the results I'm getting. Digits and special<br>
keys work but I'm getting strange results for alphabet keys.<br>
Any idea what my problem is?<br>

<br>
import pygame<br>
pygame.init()<br>
pygame.display.set_mode((100, 100))<br>
while True:<br>
    for event in pygame.event.get():<br>
        if event.type == pygame.KEYDOWN:<br>
            print event.key, "-", <a href="http://pygame.key.name" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">pygame.key.name</a>(event.key)<br>
<br>
<br>
When I hit 1, 2, F1, F2, LeftShift, PageDown, a, b the output is:<br>
<br>
49 - 1<br>
50 - 2<br>
282 - f1<br>
283 - f2<br>
304 - left shift<br>
281 - page down<br>
249 - world 89<br>
240 - world 80<br>
