Re Start button (the software implementation): some leads at

Code.htm

As for the keyboard presses, take a look at
http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/desinit/scancode.htm, where you can download
scan code lists and explanations (including the special Windows buttons), in
MS Word, PDF and Excel format.

IIRC get_key() returns a value when the Windows and application keys are
pressed.

The return codes are four-hundred-and-something, but it's been a while since
I've needed to program those keys. blink
