[SDL] Key press events

[William Brodie-Tyrrell]

Does your window have the focus?  If not, it won't get any events at
all.  Perhaps the shell still has focus.

Try grabbing the input:

 SDL_WM_GrabInput(SDL_GRAB_ON);

in which case you should get everything.  Make sure you have a way to
exit the program cleanly :)
