Member Function Documentation

autoType()

void autoType

(

const string &

text

)

Uses the auto-typing daemon to type a string.

Parameters

text	The text to type.

isPressed()

bool isPressed

(

C64Key

key

)

const

Checks if a key is currently pressed.

Parameters

key	The key to check.

press()

void press	(	C64Key	key,
		double	delay = 0.0 ) const

Presses a key.

Parameters

key	The key to press.
delay	An optional delay in seconds.

If no delay is specified, the function will immediately modify the C64's keyboard matrix. Otherwise, it will ask the event scheduler to modify the matrix with the specified delay.

Note

If you wish to press multiple keys, make sure to let some time pass between two key presses. You need to give the C64 time to scan the keyboard matrix before another key can be pressed.

release()

void release	(	C64Key	key,
		double	delay = 0.0 ) const

Releases a key.

Parameters

key	The key to release.
delay	An optional delay in seconds.

If no delay is specified, the function will immediately modify the C64's keyboard matrix. Otherwise, it will ask the event scheduler to modify the matrix with the specified delay.
