.SS Position Events
The \fBTERMKEY_TYPE_POSITION\fP event type indicates a cursor position report. This is typically sent by a terminal in response to the Report Cursor Position command (\f(CWCSI 6 n\fP). The event bytes are opaque, but can be obtained by calling \fBtermkey_interpret_position\fP(3) passing the event structure and pointers to integers to store the result in.
+.SS Unrecognised CSIs
+The \fBTERMKEY_TYPE_UNKNOWN_CSI\fP event type indicates a CSI sequence that the \fBtermkey\fP does not recognise. It will have been extracted from the stream, but is available to the application to inspect by calling \fBtermkey_interpret_csi\fP(3). It is important that if the application wishes to inspect this sequence it is done immediately, before any other IO operations on the \fBtermkey\fP instance (specifically, before calling \fBtermkey_waitkey\fP() or \fBtermkey_getkey\fP() again), otherwise the buffer space consumed by the sequence will be overwritten.
