ADB Key Spy

Last Revision:	Version 1.0, 2003-01-14 First Version
Build Requirements:
Runtime Requirements:	Carbon

This package provides a replacement for GetKeys by maintaining a key map reflecting the state of each keyboard attached to the Mac via ADB. The acute intent of the package was to solve a problem a game developer was having with the Adjustable Keyboard, which appears on ADB as two keyboards. The ROM keyboard driver has one map and clears it whenever there is a key state change on a "new" keyboard. Consequently, it was impossible for said developer to allow users to steer on the numeric key pad and fire with the space bar. Requires: System 7.0 Keywords: ADB, GetKeys, keyboard map, Apple Adjustable Keyboard
