I'd be surprised if this worked - /dev/tty is almost *certainly* not
connected to keyboard events for an X program (in fact, for an Xterm,
the program is catching X events and writing appropriate characters into
a pseudo-terminal that is being read by your shell or whatever at the
other end).

Unless of course it's a total dummy parameter - in which case I have to
wonder why it's being passed at all in the API?
