[Miguel Angel <miguelangel@xxxxxx>]

Arf, I already had my own personal welcome, when I started using kicad on
OSX,
packed Marco Serantoni wx patches into the KiCad builder.. and then Felix
Morgner contributed
a few more.

It looks like we will have a new one soon.

wxwidgets for macosx seems to poll over all the system available keyboards,
may be something
new I connected is acting as an evil keyboard...


bool wxGetKeyState (wxKeyCode key)
{

  [...]

  for(size_t i = 0; i < wxHIDModule::sm_keyboards.GetCount(); ++i)
    {
        wxHIDKeyboard* keyboard = (wxHIDKeyboard*)
                                wxHIDModule::sm_keyboards[i];

    switch(key)
    {
    case WXK_SHIFT:
            if( keyboard->IsActive(WXK_SHIFT) ||
                   keyboard->IsActive(WXK_RSHIFT) )
            {
                return true;
            }
        break;
