I'm writing an app where I need to simulate key press events on a Mac, given a code that represents each key. It seems I need to use the CGEventCreateKeyboardEvent function to create the event. The problem is that this function needs a Mac keycode, and what I have is a code that represents the specific key. So, for example, I receive: KEY_CODE_SHIFT or KEY_CODE_A - these are both numeric constants
