Let me make a few comments.
* Please follow the convention written in the "Tips for
Documentation Strings" node in the Emacs Lisp info. Yes, the
existing one is really bad in this sense.
* I think the following kind of indentation is not used in Emacs
sources unless preprocessor directives intervene.
! if (
! (mods & optionKey) &&
! (
! ( NILP(Vmac_pass_option_to_system) ||
* I'd prefer a simple principle especially for the option key
handling. I'm anxious that too complicated one might become an
obstacle when adding Unicode input support or TSM support. A
simple one would be useful not only for the maintenance of code
but also for users to understand. How about the following one?
A Mac modifier key is passed to the system if it isn't mapped to
any Emacs modifiers or the user requests that by setting
mac-pass-{control,command}-to-system to non-nil.
If the system didn't intercept the keyboard input, we obtain
keycode using KeyTranslate after stripping off all the Mac
modifier keys that are mapped to some Emacs modifiers.
In particular, the option key works as the real option key if and
only if it isn't mapped to any Emacs modifiers. (I.e., don't
introduce the variable `mac-pass-option-to-system'.)
Then the conditionals becomes much simpler. Note that this code is
based on the current definition of macCtrlKey/macMetaKey/macAltKey.
case autoKey:
{
int keycode = (er.message & keyCodeMask) >> 8;
int xkeysym;
EventModifiers modifiers;
/* Obtain Mac modifier keys that are pressed and to be
mapped to Emacs modifiers. */
modifiers = macCtrlKey | macMetaKey | macAltKey;
if (!NILP (Vmac_option_modifier))
modifiers |= optionKey;
modifiers &= er.modifiers;
#if USE_CARBON_EVENTS && defined (MAC_OSX)
/* When using Carbon Events, we need to pass raw keyboard
events to the TSM ourselves. If TSM handles it, it
will pass back noErr, otherwise it will pass back
"eventNotHandledErr" and we can process it
normally. */
if (!((NILP (Vmac_pass_command_to_system)
&& (modifiers & cmdKey))
|| (NILP (Vmac_pass_control_to_system)
&& (modifiers & controlKey))
|| (modifiers & optionKey)))
if (SendEventToEventTarget (eventRef, toolbox_dispatcher)
!= eventNotHandledErr)
break;
#endif
...
if (keycode_to_xkeysym (keycode, &xkeysym))
{
inev.code = 0xff00 | xkeysym;
inev.kind = NON_ASCII_KEYSTROKE_EVENT;
}
else
{
if (modifiers)
{
/* This code comes from Keyboard Resource,
Appendix C of IM - Text. This is necessary
since shift is ignored in KCHR table
translation when option or command is pressed.

EventModifiers new_modifiers = er.modifiers & ~modifiers;
/* mask off modifiers */
UInt16 new_keycode = keycode | new_modifiers & 0xff00;
Ptr kchr_ptr = (Ptr) GetScriptManagerVariable (smKCHRCache);
UInt32 some_state = 0;
inev.code = KeyTranslate (kchr_ptr, new_keycode,
&some_state) & 0xff;
}
else
inev.code = er.message & charCodeMask;
inev.kind = ASCII_KEYSTROKE_EVENT;
