Windows always generates VK_DECIMAL for Del/. on a keypad while some X11 keyboard layouts generate XK_KP_Separator instead of XK_KP_Decimal in order to produce a locale dependent numeric separator.
X11 handles XK_KP_Separator same way as XK_KP_Decimal for all tested keyboard layouts, so passing XK_KP_Separator instead of XK_KP_Decimal to XKeysymToKeycode doesn't break things. Pressing Del/. with NumLock turned on still correctly generates '.' or ',' depending on keyboard layout and matches what Windows does.
This patch fixes an application which uses VK_DECIMAL as a sign to break the input string and insert a separator while entering a currency/price.
Is there anything else I could provide in helping to get this patch accepted?
Any feedback on this?
