This might be what you were looking for; the names of the folks talking
about libvgl WRT Descent anyway.

I have noticed a problem with TAB too, even using VGL_RAWKEYS the
program never see a TAB (thought it was my code). It is in a quick hack
on a Master System/Game Gear and a Game Boy emulator. I was choosing TAB
as the 'reset button', but ended using BACKSPACE.
Besides there is a version of these emulators in the ports (for X),
in case somebody want a console (hacked) version, the url is:
