Please describe the problem:
When you use some of the non-printable characters (like the 4 arrows, home,
end, previous and next page...) LDTP generate different keycode depending on
your keyboard and configuration. For example, in my Spanish 105 keys keyboard
it doesn't work properly.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Using a Spanish keyboard
2. Configure it with USA layout
3. Try to do: generatekeyevent(<down>)


Actual results:
The key pressed is the enter of the numeric keypad instead down arrow

Expected results:
The key pressed is the down arrow

Does this happen every time?
Yes
