Function OnKeyboard

function OnKeyboard(char)
	...
end function

This is an event function you can overload to perform some actions when a keyboard button is pressed. This event is fired when either a button on physical keyboard or a virtual button on an on-screen keyboard is pressed. Example:

function OnKeyboard(char)
	ClearScreen()
	SetFontSize(50)
	DrawText(100, 100, char)
end function

If a non-character keyboard button is pressed, the function parameter can have one of the following values:

"VK_LEFT"
• "VK_RIGHT"
• "VK_UP"
• "VK_DOWN"
• "VK_HOME"
• "VK_END"
• "VK_INSERT"
• "VK_DELETE"
• "VK_F1"
• "VK_F2"
• "VK_F3"
• "VK_F4"
• "VK_F5"
• "VK_F6"
• "VK_F7"
• "VK_F8"
• "VK_F9"
• "VK_F10"
• "VK_F11"
• "VK_F12"
• "VK_ALT"
• "VK_CONTROL"
• "VK_PAGE_UP"
• "VK_PAGE_DOWN"
• "VK_BACKSPACE"
• "VK_ESCAPE"
• "VK_TAB"
• "VK_ENTER"
• "VK_CONTROL_ENTER"

Here is another small example:

function OnKeyboard(char)
	ClearScreen()
	SetFontSize(50)
	if char = "VK_ENTER"
		DrawText(100, 100, "Enter Pressed")
	end if
end function
