[chuck-users] Geting strange key combinations

[Spencer Salazar]

Yes, it should be possible with HidIn and HidIn.openKeyboard(), but  
probably not KBHit.

Keyboard input through HidIn tells you when a key is pressed and then  
when it is released.  So you could have a loop that waits for "f1" or  
"enter" to be pressed.  When one of these keys is pressed, it would  
continue to another loop, which would wait until either the first key  
was released, or the next key is pressed.  You could probably  
generalize this for arbitrary combinations of two keys if you wanted.

Note that HidIn doesn't return ASCII values, but rather platform- 
dependent keycodes, so you have to test with examples/hid/kb.ck to  
find out what f1 and enter are exactly.  Also, HidIn won't work with  
keyboards under Linux until the next ChucK release.
