Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/feschber/lan-mouse/issues/403

Using the latest release, 0.10.0, in Arch Linux via the extra/lan-mouse package.

I got this config parsing error when trying to use the CLI interface. Seems like the camel case used in the scan codes isn't consistent, leading to confusion. Shouldn't KeyLeftBrace stay that way in Linux as it is in Windows? Instead, it expects KeyLeftbrace.

Sorry if this is some implementation limitation that I don't know of.

Maybe it'd be ideal to add some kind of alias to some keys, to deal with these inconsistencies? Or maybe even compare the keycode in lowercase, if no ambiguity arises with this approach?
