.SS Mode Reports
The \fBTERMKEY_TYPE_MODEREPORT\fP event type indicates an ANSI or DEC mode report. This is typically sent by a terminal in response to the Request Mode command (\f(CWCSI $p\fP or \f(CWCSI ? $p\fP). The event bytes are opaque, but can be obtained by calling \fBtermkey_interpret_modereport\fP(3) passing the event structure and pointers to integers to store the result in.
.SS Unrecognised CSIs
The \fBTERMKEY_TYPE_UNKNOWN_CSI\fP event type indicates a CSI sequence that the \fBtermkey\fP does not recognise. It will have been extracted from the stream, but is available to the application to inspect by calling \fBtermkey_interpret_csi\fP(3). It is important that if the application wishes to inspect this sequence it is done immediately, before any other IO operations on the \fBtermkey\fP instance (specifically, before calling \fBtermkey_waitkey\fP() or \fBtermkey_getkey\fP() again), otherwise the buffer space consumed by the sequence will be overwritten.

Other types of key event do not suffer this limitation as the \fBTermKeyKey\fP structure is sufficient to contain all the information required.
