What are the names for the keys?

[skatelhs]

I'm wondering, how do you find out the names for keys?
for example KEY_DOWN_ARROW and KEY_ENTER, but what are they for
a b c d e f g etc.
or is that just something like
if (variable name):"c" then
put whatever

thanks

moved to turing help

as for the other letters...

code:

var chars : array char of boolean         Input.KeyDown (chars)         if chars ('t') then             put "The T key is pressed"         end if

just use the letter itself... 'a','b','c'...

[nate]

for a = ('a')
for b = ('b')

ect.

i hope u get the picture

***This is a great program to run that shows about all the keys on the keyboard.***

i was given it from school

code:

if you have turing 4.0+ you can press f10, then click on the link that says "getch key codes" or something like that. handy dandy, much easier than running a program

[Kingnoz]

oh well. i find it easier to find the number in the program
