I was indeed wrong. It seems, from Ben Eater, that USB comms is in 8 byte chunks, not 32.NormanDunbar wrote:I might be wrong, it happens, but your 32 bytes might be the USB communications -- if your keyboard is or emulates USB of course.
Apparently upto 6 keys can be pressed, but for some cheap keyboards, there are no diodes on the matrix, so errors are reported instead of the"n" pressed keys. I learned this just today.Peter wrote:but some implementations use only the first three or four bytes.
I am wondering if all the impossible keys should be pulled out, does any emulator emulate extra keys?Subject: [PATCH] INCLUDE_curses.h : correct keycodes

LEFT
RIGHT

F1-F5
all appear to be wrong in the file.
