I've been wanting to do this for a few days and last night I finally did. I have made my own version of a keystate graphic to quickly find the keystate of keys. I did this because the keystate graphic I was using (that I got from here) was kinda small, blurry, and a few keys were wrong (or not there). I do thank whoever made that graphic because it has been very useful to me and i'm sure many others.

I made this for myself but I decided this morning i'd share it with the Darkbasic Community.

Enjoy.

that's cool, i always thought the keystate was more organised then that but apparently not. (as you can see i rarely use it, only wasd or single values, and then i normally just use db to display the keystate for me so i don't have to work it out.)

life's one big game

Thanks Devastation and Smallg.

I use that new picture of the keystate map and pictures of the ascii chart. Everything I don't want to memorize I have on a picture.

Wait a second, how'd you memorize the keyboard to know where all of the keys went?

Eh? Your school must of had a graphic similar to mine... because I just made it on 12-17-05.

The image thats attached to this message is the one that inspired me to make my own (that may be the one your school had)
