Subject: Keyboard Intercept
I was wondering...is it possible to write a program in E that will
intercept key presses? Let me explain, that's kind of vague. What I'd
like to do is write a program that runs concurrently with my terminal
program and that "intercepts" any keys pressed on the keypad and send
whatever I want in its place. Example: The rest of the keyboard works
normally. But say I press '0' on the keypad - the program would then
intercept the '0' and replace it with the word 'directory' which would
then be picked up by the terminal program.
It sounds like it should be doable, but I'd like to make sure before I
invest the time in it. Thanks.
