Lines: 20 I am posting this message for a friend of mine who seems to be having trouble posting it himself... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Im trying to write a program that uses Intuition to handle its input event. In my Intuition manual, it explains that the Rawkey flag in the event class, when set, will send you untranslated keycodes from the keyboard. When you use that, you can see when they use the Amiga keys, the alt keys, and the function keys. My question is, how do I translate this to an ascii code? Id like to know what key they're pressing on the keyboard, and that raw code sure isnt telling me. The manual also refers to a vanillakey event class, but in TDI Modula-2, the language Im trying to use, there is no mention of this in the set of IE classes. Any help with this would be appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ lachac@topaz.rutgers.edu
