I am using the windows api feature getasynckeystate() to check the status of every key pressed; like this;
#always checking while(True): #iterate through list of ascii codes for num in range(0,127): #if ascii code key is being pressed if win32api.GetAsyncKeyState(num): #do stuff This works great, almost. The issue that comes up now is that every time i press a key, the code grabs two or three key presses. So i tried making sure that repeated keys weren't pressed repeatedly; #always checking while(True): #iterate through list of ascii codes for num in range(0,127): #if ascii code key is being pressed if win32api.GetAsyncKeyState(num): if oldkeychar == num: #don't do stuff else: #do stuff this works great, but It won't record stuff like 'look' or 'suffer' because it doesn't record repeated keys. So I try doing a delay instead; #always checking while(True): #iterate through list of ascii codes for num in range(0,127): #if ascii code key is being pressed if win32api.GetAsyncKeyState(num): if oldkeychar == num: if crrenttime > (time.time() - .5) #do stuff because key has been repeated, but not because it was held down else: #don't do stuff because key is pressed to soon else: #do stuff because key is not repeated currenttime = time.time() this almost works, but I end recording some double keypresses, and missing others. Does anybody have any suggestions? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
