I'm working on sort of a text editor, and i'm using RawKeyConvert to 
process the keys as they are entered.  In the documentation that I have
(I do have the RKMs, but for rev 1.0 ... I know, it's old, but I have no
money to get the lastest issue, so thats why I'm asking) it mentions
that you can provide your own KeyMap structure to RawKeyConvert.

My question is:  What does a KeyMap structure look like, and is there a
way I can load in a KeyMap into my program from DEVS:keymaps without
using the cli command setkeymap.

I'd either like to be able to convert a DEVS:Keymap file to C code, or get
some idea how to load it in from disk.

Your help will be appreciated!
