I refer you to Owen's previous answer to this question

-------------------------------------------
When you get a key press event, you can check 

 event->state

For instance, 

 if (event->state & GDK_SHIFT_MASK)
   /* shift key was pressed */

The relevant modifiers in this bitfield are:

/* Types of modifiers.
 */
typedef enum
{
  GDK_SHIFT_MASK    = 1 << 0,
  GDK_LOCK_MASK     = 1 << 1,
  GDK_CONTROL_MASK  = 1 << 2,
  GDK_MOD1_MASK     = 1 << 3,
  GDK_MOD2_MASK     = 1 << 4,
  GDK_MOD3_MASK     = 1 << 5,
  GDK_MOD4_MASK     = 1 << 6,
  GDK_MOD5_MASK     = 1 << 7,
  GDK_BUTTON1_MASK  = 1 << 8,
  GDK_BUTTON2_MASK  = 1 << 9,
  GDK_BUTTON3_MASK  = 1 << 10,
  GDK_BUTTON4_MASK  = 1 << 11,
  GDK_BUTTON5_MASK  = 1 << 12
} GdkModifierType;

                                        Owen
