Using PageDown as a global event key

Coding

Hi,

I am trying to use pagedown as a global event key, however it does not appear to be in the _valid_keys list that is set in event.py (lines 1066-1071), and so throws an error when I try to add it. Is there any way to add keys to the _valid_keys list without modifying event.py?

best,

Richard

p.s. the reason I am trying to use pagedown, is that I have a Logitech R400 Wireless Presenter Remote Control that I would like to use, which maps to the keys (pagedown, pageup, period, and escape). I am using escape already as the quit key

worked it out by adding the key to the list:

event.globalKeys._valid_keys.update([‘pagedown’])
