hello,
i am doing a small virtual piano program in python..
i have a situation where i need to get multiple keystrokes from key board
and send it to a function
the function accepts only char..
eg if i press 'a' , 'a' is passed to the function
if i press 'a','d' then the function should be called simultaneously
i tried using threads it dint seem to work
or any other suggestion
I think you are approaching the problem the wrong way. Keyboard cannot
give you multiple inputs for the different keys. The standard way to
handle it in games and other places is to have a separate thread that
monitors for keys and you look for time difference between keys to say
if they are pressed simultaneously or they are pressed with significant
time difference.
Keyboard and mouse are serial devices and will only send only key at a time.
Best of luck with the virtual piano..
