I've been coding a key biding feature for my game Rush to Adventure. These are things that I have found that I think needs fixing at some point.

F9 - F12 doesn't generate keycodes.

On my numpad only * and + uses separate keycodes, the other use the same as on the other keys. It should be possible to detect all of them separately IIRC. At least I know other games that uses numpad separate. There's plenty of unused keycodes.

Alt do generate a keycode, but it still sets the program into a different state. Like if a Windows menu is accessed. So it's still unusable within games.

Caps Lock generates no keycode, not sure if it should?

seems it is something for the big feature request list / thread.
for any reason the F keys appear only until F8

because its a keyboard every key should prompted.
a command to findout if a key is registered as hotkey would be fine.

Posted to the request thread.

With added separation for left and right versions of keys.
