Extra-keys in on-screen keyboard! #50

Hello! :)
Really nice work on porting DOSBOX for the Wii! ;)
And the on-screen keyboard is also an awesome addition for those that do not 
own a USB keyboard, like me! :P

But I still have some keyboard issues when using mostly installer/setup or 
other text-GUI driven applications... :(

These are some examples of the most annoying situations:
* "Press UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT to select option"
* "Press TAB to change field"
* "Press CTRL+C to exit"
* "Type source/destination path" (but one needs to delete the default path 
first!)

Unfortunately I can't seem to find any way to accomplish these operations with 
the available on-screen keyboard! :S

So, is there a chance for some of these "extra keys" to be added to the 
keyboard?
* arrow keys (KEYCODES: 25, 26, 27, 28)
* backspace/delete keys (KEYCODES: 08, 2E)
* tab key (KEYCODE: 09)
* control key (KEYCODE: 11)

This would be an incredibly useful usability improvement for DOSBox-Wii to be 
able to run correctly a lot more DOS applications!

Thanks in advance!
And keep up the great work! ;)
See ya! :)

I agree.
We need some sample files. A keymapper file, please.
