PyCap and keycodes

[Pavel Kolchanov]

Python Demo 1 work not correctly - SDL and Windows keycodes are different. At this moment, I made simple pygame.locals-like file from SDL_keysym.h (tried to use pygame.locals directly, but there were some errors).

Oops, sorry for formatting with tabs…
This code is easy to use - write it down, for example, in file "keysyms.py", and import it in the game:

from keysyms import *

Next, it can be used in key processing:

def keyDown( key ):
    # if arrow keys have changed, store them in our global variables
    if key == K_LEFT:
        global leftDown
        leftDown = 1
    elif key == K_RIGHT:
        global rightDown
        rightDown = 1
    elif key == K_UP:
        global upDown
        upDown = 1
    elif key == K_DOWN:
        global downDown
        downDown = 1
    elif key == K_ESCAPE:
        global doExit
        doExit = 1
