Is their a way I run my program until a certain keystroke is pressed? I've looked on google and nothing is really making sense. It doesn't have to be efficient or pretty, I just need something to start with.

That is what you would need for DBC/DBPro.

lol, nope, just normal c++

AND also if anyone has any idea on how to check for keystrokes no matter what program i'm clicked on, instead of having to enter the code into a command line and hitting enter.

No.... If i wanted to make a keylogger i would just dl one. I'm making a music player that auto hides itself and shows itself with certain keystrokes. OH and btw breaking a loop when a keystroke is entered in would do nothing for a keylogger because you don't want the person to be able to show the keylogger in any way.

Dunno if it still exists but you might look to see if kbhit() is an available function. It was mostly a Borland function but when I did a test in VC++ 2005 it recognized it, compiled and linked. But when I ran it, it complained about not being able to find a specific DLL. It might be missing the dll or it might be a matter of putting it in the directory with the executable.

Ok, I have a question. If this is not a GDK question, why ask it in the GDK forum?

Next thing is that you'll tell us it's not windows either

Google for 'Windows message loop' if you are planning on a standard windows application, or 'windows console input' if it's a windows console application.
