I assume it's hardwired by the keyboard manufacturer, same as the AltGr key, which produces Ctrl + Alt, while on US keyboards there is a second Alt key on the right side of the space bar which returns just Alt.

Hi Boris, I searched the web for keyboard layouts and found two different turkish layouts: http://ascii-table.com/keyboard.php/440 http://ascii-table.com/keyboard.php/179 Looking on those keyboards I learned that in Turkish there are 2 "i" characters (both in uppercase and lowercase): latin i with dot and latin i without dot, while in English or German it's the uppercase i without dot and the lowercase i with dot. I have no clue if those keyboards use the same scan codes as "normal" US or western european keyboards and the keyboard driver is generating the different ASCII values for i with and without dot or if those keyboards generate different values.
