95 is the code for the left arrow character - the standard symbol for the
escape code (which is also printed on the escape key of some machines). So I'm
pretty sure I got this wrong when putting together the key list in cbm.h.

The left arrow symbol is the standard symbol for escape, so I would say this
key *is* the escape key for the C64 and VIC20. The best solution would
probably be to move the definition for CH_ESC in the system specific files and
make it 0x03 or 0x1B respectively. Or do we need to distinguish between these
keys somehow?
