The WM_KEYDOWN is broken up liek: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms646280(VS.85).aspx
If you just want to get the 1 byte scancode which is 1 byte into the wParam, you could try something like:
| Code: | | BYTE vk = (BYTE)*(((void*)(msg.wParam))+1) |
EDIT: disregard the above was thinking about lparam
wParam is a DWORD, 4 bytes, but all it contains is the scancode.
| Code: | | BYTE vk = msg.wParam; |
should work. |
wParam = WORD (2 Bytes) Parameter, lParam = LONG (LongInt) Parameter

Little out of date my friend. WPARAM and LPARAM are both 32-bit now.

Create a keyboard hook? Lol. I'm sure there are examples, just google it. I found an article on the first link of that search.

yeh, bad wording, it has absolutely no advantage over GetKeyState at this point, still requires ifs

Lol, then use GetKeyState 
| Code: |
var vk : DWORD
if(GetKeyState(VK_CONTROL) <> 1) begin
vk := VK_CONTROL
end
|
There's an example. Haven't used delphi in a long time, so that may not be right syntax, but you get the idea.

Why don't you simply call SetWindowsHookEx?
You could also loop through 1~150 or something and RegisterHotKey, but its stupid, use SetWindowsHookEx.

We already showed an example, but he doesn't want a "crap load of ifs" or cases, but in reality it's kind of the same thing.
@ Snootae
Dude, sometimes you have to do a lot of things that are very tedious, such as doing case statements for each VK, but you need to. Or you could learn C++, rewrite everything, and just do it the way we showed you before. Which one sounds easier to you?

Edit:
What the fuck? X-Trainer help? The hell did that come from?
Ok, this is irritating. I'm going to PM Snootae my old post, then PM it to DB and ask him about it.
