hello!
i am trying to turn my computer keyboard into a midi keyboard for
sequencing, and i'm curious about the HID readout for key_49, which
on my ibook g4 is the "|" and "" key. i have [hid] printing to the
console, and when i press key_49, i get this readout:
\: dropped print: key key_-1 49 print: key key_1 0 print: key key_49 1 print: key key_-1 0 \: dropped print: key key_-1 0 print: key key_1 0 print: key key_49 0 print: key key_-1 0
what is the meaning of the "\: dropped" message? will it impede my
using that key as a note on the keyboard?
thanks, leo

this is probably pd doesnt like it when you enter certain characters, like the backslash ..... better dont use them anywhere .... if they are not catched, it will make your pd go mad ;)

Yes, If you want to use that key even if a backslash is prohibited in Pd, your should try out the french canadian keyboard layout !! I don't like azerty keyboards... and I try to promote it in France. ;-) There is also the dvorak keyboard layout, for originals : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvorak_keyboard
Actually, you should use the key number, and not the letter symbol, no ? Please do the "hard work" and make it freely available as an abstraction. ;-)

Real men delete the offending line from pd/src/g_editor.c.
I mean only the annoying post(). The actual catching must be preserved, else it's a bug.

Actually, you should use [key] or [keyname], no ? Easier, I guess.
