 If a window controlled by our program currently holds the keyboard focus, it can receive key press and key release events. So, we should add one (or more) of the following masks when we create our window:
 
-* XCB_EVENT_MASK_KEY_PRESS: notify us when a key was pressed while any of our controlled windows had the keyboard focus.
-* XCB_EVENT_MASK_KEY_RELEASE: notify us when a key was released while any of our controlled windows had the keyboard focus. 
+		XCB_EVENT_MASK_KEY_PRESS     // key was pressed while any of our controlled windows had the keyboard focus
+		XCB_EVENT_MASK_KEY_RELEASE   // key was released while any of our controlled windows had the keyboard focus
 
-The structure to be checked for in our events loop is the same for these two events, and is the following:
-
-                  typedef struct {
-                      uint8_t         response_type; /* The type of the event */
-                      xcb_keycode_t   detail;
-                      uint16_t        sequence;
-                      xcb_timestamp_t time;          /* Time, in milliseconds the event took place in */
-                      xcb_window_t    root;
-                      xcb_window_t    event;
-                      xcb_window_t    child;
-                      int16_t         root_x;
-                      int16_t         root_y;
-                      int16_t         event_x;
-                      int16_t         event_y;
-                      uint16_t        state;
-                      uint8_t         same_screen;
-                  } xcb_key_press_event_t;
+These generate events of the same type, which goes by two names:
 
-                  typedef xcb_key_press_event_t xcb_key_release_event_t;
+		typedef struct {
+			uint8_t         response_type; /* The type of the event */
+			xcb_keycode_t   detail;        /* the physical key on the keyboard */
+			uint16_t        sequence;
+			xcb_timestamp_t time;          /* Time, in milliseconds the event took place in */
+			xcb_window_t    root;
+			xcb_window_t    event;
+			xcb_window_t    child;
+			int16_t         root_x;
+			int16_t         root_y;
+			int16_t         event_x;
+			int16_t         event_y;
+			uint16_t        state;
+			uint8_t         same_screen;
+		} xcb_key_press_event_t;
 
-The detail field refers to the physical key on the keyboard.

 TODO: Talk about getting the ASCII code from the key code.
