[Visualpython-users] Input devices

[Gary S. <st...@nm...>]

Hello,

Sorry if this is a dumb question (and hope this hasn't already been
posted--mail firewall issues), but ...

I'm brand new to Visual Python (though a long-time Python user), and I was
unable to find info on this question in the archives or doc. I'm
interested in using VPython for a navigation-in-3D task which requires
input devices other than the mouse (esp. joysticks and keyboard). I see
that the mouse worked automatically when I ran the little demo program,
and the archives suggest that a trackball (i.e., a mouse-alike) works fine
too. Is there a way to handle other input devices as well? And if so, how? 

Cheers,

Gary Strangman
