Although I'm sure it's already been done a million times, I've attached a program that displays the scancode of the last key pressed. It runs in a little window so that it can be used at the same time as other programs (e.g. referencing scancodes for developing in DarkBASIC). I did this because I couldn't find a suitable table of scancodes for all of the standard keys, and I thought maybe others had the same issue. Anyway, here it is.

***EDIT***

The forum doesn't like me for some reason and I can't upload the file, so here is the source that you can compile for yourselves

+ Code Snippet

Rem Project: Scancode

SET WINDOW LAYOUT 1,0,1
currentkey = 0
do
suspend for key
cls
currentkey = scancode()
text 10,10, str$(currentkey)

I hope you find this useful ^_^

This post belongs in the codesnippet section, no Dark Basic Pro Discussion. Plus, you will get more replies on your snippet. Looks good though.
