GetChar () ?

[PwNZoRNooB]

GetChar () ?

You need to press enter, I mean like how can you make it so in C++ that it can detect if you are pressing 'a'

Anyone?

[Freddy1990]

use the GetASyncState API

Freddy knows everything?!

[Freddy1990]

you should do someting like this:

  

void begin() 
{
if (GetAsyncKeyState(VK_MENU)) //VK_MENU means alt
		{
			if (GetAsyncKeyState('K')) // what ever the command here! 
                        if (GetAsyncKeyState('P')) // this would be activated if u pushed alt+p  
       } 
}

i think thats right.. im just learning c,c++ so yea

GetAsyncKeyState loops are rather slow, I recommend setting a global windows keyboard hook, so that your program is notified whenever a key is pressed. This way, you don't eat up CPU with an infinite loop. Here is the MSDN for the SetWindowsHookEx API that you need to use: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms644990.aspx. Use the WH_KEYBOARD_LL hook type.
