 Key Codes & Alt Characters |  |
When a key is pressed on the keyboard, a keycode is sent and the proper letter, number, character or action is decoded. Detecting this decimal number can be useful in scripting as it indicates which key has been pressed. A shortcut would be one example. Try it here. |
