[sugar] key-press-event' to listen to game pad keys?

[Julius B. Lucks]

Hi Erik,

In pygame, we are using the keys

pygame.K_KP9,  #KP_Page_Up
pygame.K_KP3,  #KP_Page_Down
pygame.K_KP1,  #KP_End
pygame.K_KP7,  #KP_Home

which (I believe) correspond to

pygame.K_UP,
pygame.K_DOWN,
pygame.K_RIGHT,
pygame.K_LEFT,

I would assume the constants are similarly named for gtk.  Hope this  
helps,

Julius
