Linux Keycode Table - Howto - (Oolite keys again)

Hi,

I'm trying to understand the Linux Keycode Table.
I can't yet put here it's link.

because I would like to use such keys as:
PrintScreen, ScrollLock, Pause,
Insert, PageUp, PageDown, End
for control Oolite.

Say, in the Linux Keycode Table at the line:
Home | 102 | e0 47 e0 c7 | 102 | [1~ 1b 5b 31 7e
how can one know that that the keycode for Oolite is 303?

Maybe it's not 303 but 302, however on my system it is 303.

Say, how can one know from this line:
PgUp | 104 | e0 49 e0 c9 | 104 | [5~ 1b 5b 35 7e

the keycode of PageUp key for Oolite?

Actually, I want to understand the fifth column of this table, say
in case of PgUp this is: [5~ 1b 5b 35 7e
What does it mean?

Thanks!

Related Oolite Wiki Page is totally useless (unfortunatelly) except the hint regarding where to put a user key config file.
It would be cool to know how to bind the Backspace and End keys, for instance.
I amazed by Oolite architecture letting make the game very cool with open source OXPs but just frustrated why the key binding implemented in such a misterious way.
Many thanks.

In current test releases, key assignments can be specified as text instead.
It looks like most of the info on the oolite keyboard controls page is still targeted at 1.65, and has not been updated with details about how it works NOW.
