I''ve written a function to return a key if it is pressed: [source] int ReturnKey() { for (int i = 0; i < 127; i++) { if (!keys && pressedKeys[i]) { pressedKeys[i] = false; } } for (int j = 0; j < 127; j++) { if (keys[j] && !pressedKeys[j]) { pressedKeys[j] = true; return j; } } return -1; } [\source] The one problem is, it ALWAYS return uppercase values. Is there any easier way to get user input from the keyboard? I am using it in a console, and am trying to get user input. Any suggestions? Thanks -+=SkyFire360

i guess you can use "getchar" or "getc". or check the status of the "shift" key if your are using DOS.

Nope, this is using the NEHE base code. All I want is when someone hits the ''g'' key or the ''k'' key or any other key, I want the console to say "gk" or whatever.
