Er, I've just been busy ReSourcing other code and small intros, and ripping fonts and shit.

sorry about the long delay tho, heres the os friendly input.device example to read a keyboard from one of the ex44 disks.

still having trouble converting rgbboxes.c to asm as I don't know how to convert tags to asm.

[Asman]

Hi redblade, no problem, time has no meaning ( sometimes ). Only the task has . As far as remember tags are simple. First you should check tagitem.i in includes:utility drawer. For example if you have:

struct TagItem vcTags[] =
{
    {VTAG_ATTACH_CM_SET, NULL },
    {VTAG_VIEWPORTEXTRA_SET, NULL },
    {VTAG_NORMAL_DISP_SET, NULL },
    {VTAG_END_CM, NULL }
};

Above code in asm:

vcTags:
 dc.l VTAG_ATTACH_CM_SET, 0
 dc.l VTAG_VIEWPORTEXTRA_SET,0
 dc.l VTAG_NORMAL_DISP_SET,0
 dc.l VTAG_END_CM,0

Thanks Asman.

Hi,

Just adding my bit to this old thread, as I need help finding info relating to this topic.

I have successfully found and can recieve data from the SDR (keyboard) from CIAA (data is currently directly transmitted to the current screen). However, I do not have access to the scancode table for the Amiga 600 (my preferred Amiga). Does anyone know where I can find one?

The scan codes are the same for all Amiga models. Some have a few keys more or less.

Look out for a copy of the Amiga Hardware Reference Manual on the net. In appendix H you will find a map with all codes.

I already own the Hardware Reference Manual (1989 Edition), and there is a scancode matrix table in Appendix H (Keyboard). It states that it is for A500,A1000 and A2000 only, which is why I wasn't sure whether the codes would be different for the A600.

Even if the scancodes do remain the same, I do know that some keys are moved around depending on the keyboard (e.g. Azerty and Qwerty) and user settings (e.g. Dvorak).

The scan codes are always the same. What changes is how they are interpreted. For example the key right of the TAB key does always have code $10. If you see that code as a 'Q' or 'A' key depends on you.
Appendix H assigned a US keymap to the codes.

Ok. Thanks for confirming what I had thought
