In MCP 1.8 it seems to be a LWJGL issue. It returns for example for "ß" an event key value which is greater than 0.

I am really sorry if this is a duplicate 😞
How to reproduce (I think you have to use a German keyboard layout):
Open the control settings
Change a key for a action (example: Left) to for example "ä"
Affected keys:
^
AltGr
ß
´
#
+
ä
ü
ö
Even some of the keys works later, for example AltGr doesn't:
It sets the used key to LeftControl, but later no matter if I press LeftControl or AltGr the action assigned to AltGr will be performed
Why this is only partwise maybe the US layout:
Using Z or Y works correct, even they are switched on the US layout
Pressing Strg (=Left Control) works, but AltGr gets also to LeftControl
Note:
"Open Command" is default assigned to "Slash" however "Slash" is with the same layout "#" on the German keyboard. This means pressing "#" opens the chat and lets you enter a command

For me this appears to be fixed. The key names are correct and pressing the keys does the respective action.
Can someone please check if this is still an issue in the latest snapshot 17w43b?
