Maybe it would be better to have a variable list of flags, like 
MessageBox(caption, msg, "yesno", "error")

As for keys list, below is the list I use, it's taken from Delphi. I 
added some traditional names, like ALT for VK_MENU, BACKSPACE for 
VK_BACK, CTRL for VK_CONTROL, CAPSLOCK for VK_CAPITAL, PGUP, PGDN and 
maybe some more.
