Hi Ferdinand
I have always found the performance of Eu's "get_key" a bit lacking.
It always seems to hit the performance of whatever I am trying to
do. It also seems to buffer up and I couldn't find a way to stop that.
(that may be my fault...)
Under windows, I found the best solution was to use windows
keyboard support.
eg.
include dll.e
-- some constants for keys
global constant VK_ESCAPE =3D #1B,
VK_LEFT =3D #25,
VK_UP =3D #26,
VK_RIGHT =3D #27,
VK_DOWN =3D #28
atom my_user32_dll
my_user32_dll =3D open_dll("user32.dll") -- want this for windows =
keyboard input!
global constant GetAsyncKeyState =3D =
and called something like....
if c_func(GetAsyncKeyState,{VK_LEFT}) then
--
-- do stuff here
end if
if c_func(GetAsyncKeyState,{'Z'}) then
--
-- do other stuff here
end if
I think the fact that you can do this sort of thing in Eu is another
advantage it has over QBasic (and Liberty I think)

This may sound like a stupid question but ...... HOW DA HELL DO YOU =
PROGRAM THE KEABORD !!!! I just don`t understand . How do I program the =
keabord so that when I press a key the computer know that it is the F =
(or any other
key ) and then somthing hapens like a bom expodes . In Basic all you =
have to do
is type INKEY =3D F ( or any other key ) . Please reply . Thanks .
