Several people responded when I asked this a few weeks ago, so I will teach
you what they taught me:
Unicodes for modifier key symbols:
Decimal Hex
Control 8963 0x2303
Option 8997 0x2325
Shift 8679 0x21e7
Command 8984 0x2318
Return 8617 0x21a9
To see more, open System Preferences > International > Input menu and check
Character Palette. Then, click on your flag (Keyboard menu) and choose Show
Character Palette. Finally, tab to the Unicode Table and browse through
characters.
Neither XCode nor CodeWarrior support unicode escapes in string constants
(and I can't seem to do it in Interface Builder either). So, you have to
use an NSLocalizedString(). Here is a typical entry in your
Localizable.strings:
"Quit cmd-Q" = "Quit \U2318Q" ;
