exkeys(3alleg4) Allegro manual exkeys(3alleg4) NAME
exkeys - How to get input from the keyboard in different ways. Allegro game programming library. SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h> Example exkeys DESCRIPTION
This program demonstrates how to access the keyboard. The first part shows the basic use of readkey(). The second part shows how to extract the ASCII value. Next come the scan codes. The fourth test detects modifier keys like alt or shift. The fifth test requires some focus to be passed. The final step shows how to use the global key array to read simultaneous key presses. The last method to detect key presses are keyboard callbacks. This is demonstrated by installing a keyboard callback, which marks all pressed keys by drawing to a grid. SEE ALSO

exmouse(3alleg4) Allegro manual exmouse(3alleg4) NAME
exmouse - Getting input from the mouse. Allegro game programming library. SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h> Example exmouse DESCRIPTION
This program demonstrates how to get mouse input. The first part of the test retrieves the raw mouse input data and displays it on the screen without using any mouse cursor. When you press a key the standard arrow-like mouse cursor appears. You are not restricted to this shape, and a second key press modifies the cursor to be several concentric colored circles. They are not joined together, so you can still see bits of what's behind when you move the cursor over the printed text message. SEE ALSO
