Perfect on Linux.
Dont forget to do it for BCNumericKeyboard.pas too.

I thought about that but it seems BCNumericKeyboard doesn't send inputs, there is rather a Change event, that is handled by the application. So nothing to do here.

The idea is to prevent the BCKeyboard component to be focused and to send all different messages for the key inputs (
KEYDOWN,KEYCHAR,Utf8KeyPress,KEYUP).This continues the original pull request #266.
I've tested it on Windows and on WSL (gtk2).
On Windows, sending the
KEYCHARevent automatically generates theUtf8KeyPresscall, whereas on Linux with gtk2 I've added an explicit call to this method.
