how to add special character when the next line key is pressed?

I want to add a special character when the nextline button(key) is pressed in android mobile.

Plz help me to handle the Android 2.2 keyboard.

Am trying to use this code but its not supported me...

etDetail.addKeyPressHandler(new KeyDownHandler() {
        public void onKeyPress(KeyPressEvent event) {
              int charCode = event.getUnicodeCharCode();
              if (charCode == 0) {
                // it's probably Firefox
                int keyCode = event.getNativeEvent().getKeyCode();
                // beware! keyCode=40 means "down arrow", while charCode=40 means '('
                // always check the keyCode against a list of "known to be buggy" codes!
                if (keyCode == KeyCodes.KEY_ENTER) {
                  doOnEnterKeyPressed();
                }
              } else if (charCode == 13) {
                doOnEnterKeyPressed();
              }  
            }
        });

What packages are added to do this task or give some ideas

Thanks in advance

Please try this. I hope this code snippet will help you

editText.setOnKeyListener(new OnKeyListener() {

        public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {


            if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER && event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {

                doOnEnterKeyPressed();

            }

            return true;
        }
    });
