was heard to say:
Turns out that keypress access *is* the hardest. You have that in Qt but
you have to be running in X and within a widget. It's ridiculous to do
all that to find out if a key is pressed.
I have no idea how to find out in low-level programming whether a key is
depressed.
Any kernel savvy people out there?
Have you looked at SDL? It gives you fairly simple access to the
keyboard, and I *think* it can work outside X.
Package: libsdl1.2debian (1.2.13-1 and others)
"SDL is a library that allows programs portable low level access to a
video framebuffer, audio output, mouse, and keyboard."
have not tried that.
