I looked a small bit into this; turns out Win32 uses DirectInput to reveal
exact keypress events. It appears to require a decent amount of
infrastructure to support detailed keymap data -- a termcap based system
isn't going to cut it here, but SSH tunneling full on X should.
I'm betting that one of the commercial X-Servers, like eXceed, would work
out of the box with this requirement.
