/*
  Some patterns seen in terminal key escape codes, derived from combos seen
  at http://www.midnight-commander.org/browser/lib/tty/key.c

  ESC letter
  ESC [ letter
  ESC [ modifier letter
  ESC [ 1 ; modifier letter
  ESC [ num char
  ESC [ num ; modifier char
  ESC O letter
  ESC O modifier letter
  ESC O 1 ; modifier letter
  ESC N letter
  ESC [ [ num ; modifier char
  ESC [ [ 1 ; modifier letter
  ESC ESC [ num char
  ESC ESC O letter

  - char is usually ~ but $ and ^ also happen with rxvt
  - modifier is 1 +
                (shift     * 1) +
                (left_alt  * 2) +
                (ctrl      * 4) +
                (right_alt * 8)
  - two leading ESCs apparently mean the same as one leading ESC
