What are getKey codes?

New page

"It'd be nice to get a normal BASIC getKey-style return code. Perhaps the KBD driver wrapper could overwrite H (element 6, which is usually zero anyway) with that before returing."
: What key code format is used by BASIC getKey? If someone has code to convert GetKey codes to getKey codes, I'll put in usb8x no problem. --[[User:Dan Englender|Dan Englender]] 18:02, 27 January 2007 (PST)

−	::getKey codes are translated scancodes; there's no connection with GetKey codes. Each key is assigned the value (row*10+column), so Y= is 11, Window is 12, Zoom is 13, and so forth up to Enter = 105. The translation is done by the routine [[83Plus:BCALLs:4744\|GetK]], which itself uses a LUT.	+	::getKey codes are translated scancodes; there's no connection with GetKey codes.
