Well, might not be exactly true, depending on what kind of scancodes you 
are talking about. For example, the F1 key, according to the Microsoft 
Keyboard Scan Code Specification, is listed as "key 112", with a "scan 1 
make" value of 59. This value is also used, for example, over the RDP 
protocol. But in a X11 context, say when viewing the keycode using "xev", 
the keycode is 67, ie keycode is scancode plus 8.
