If there are string variables, then both the keypress code (an integer
number) and string representation of the key will be returned.


Some other "cleaning" of interactive terminal APIs could be done by changing
    "term->set_cursor(int,int,int)"
to
    "term->set_interactive_terminal_function(int,int,int [,int?], string)"

to be reused for several purposes like "unset your default hotkeys", "change
menu", "do raise", etc.
  Just I don't have time to do this change, right now.
