But how would rdesktop know that it should translate keycode 255 to VK_OEM_4? The answer is that it cannot, since there's no keycode with value 255 at all in the XKB database. Besides, the keycode might be 255 today, but 254 or something else tomorrow. Please try to understand that your approach of looking at the keycode does not work.
