ok so i'm trying to figure out what scancode certain buttons are and so im trying to do this:

+ Code Snippet

int scan;

void DarkGDK ( void )
{
	while ( LoopGDK ( ) )
	{
		scan = dbScanCode();
		dbText( 0, 0, scan);
		dbSync ( );
	}
	return;
}

but well as you know that doesn't work because dbText expects a string. Unfortunately I don't really know who to get around this. Could somebody please help?

dbCLS will clear the screen
dbStr will return a string representation of the value provided.

Try:

+ Code Snippet

int scan;

void DarkGDK ( void )
{
	while ( LoopGDK ( ) )
	{
		dbCLS();
		dbText(0,0, dbStr(scan));
		dbSync ( );
	}
	return;
}

or even

+ Code Snippet

void DarkGDK ( void )
{
	while ( LoopGDK ( ) )
	{
		dbCLS();
		dbText(0,0, dbStr(dbScanCode()));
		dbSync ( );
	}
	return;
}
