NOTES/CHANGELOG

It was added some code to the EVENT_event_to_vkey function. Its purpose is to make the delete keys (both of them) work properly with my ABNT keyboard. In ABNT keyboards, instead of del + '.' we have del + ','
The problem I was having is that when pressing the delete key, (no matter which one of them) wine generated del + ',' i.e. two keystrokes at once with numlock on.
This code worked for me, but I dont know how it will interfere with another keyboard layouts, and if another keyboards with del + ',' will have the same numbers (keycodes and keysyms) which I have coded in this patch.
BTW: key-orig.c is my backup file and novo-key.c is my actual dlls/x11drv/keyboard.c
