/**
* A KeyStroke represents a key action on the keyboard, or equivalent input
* device. KeyStrokes can correspond to only a press or release of a particular
* key, just as KEY_PRESSED and KEY_RELEASED KeyEvents do; alternately, they
* can correspond to typing a specific Java character, just as KEY_TYPED
* KeyEvents do. In all cases, KeyStrokes can specify modifiers (alt, shift,
* control, meta, altGraph, or a combination thereof) which must be present during the
* action for an exact match.
* <p>
* KeyStrokes are used to define high-level (semantic) action events. Instead
* of trapping every keystroke and throwing away the ones you are not
* interested in, those keystrokes you care about automatically initiate
* actions on the Components with which they are registered.
* <p>
* KeyStrokes are immutable, and are intended to be unique. Client code cannot
* create a KeyStroke; a variant of <code>getKeyStroke</code> must be used
* instead. These factory methods allow the KeyStroke implementation to cache
* and share instances efficiently.
* <p>
* <strong>Warning:</strong>
* Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with
* future Swing releases. The current serialization support is
* appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running
* the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage
* of all JavaBeans<sup><font size="-2">TM</font></sup>
* has been added to the <code>java.beans</code> package.
* Please see {@link java.beans.XMLEncoder}.
