Hello all!

I'd like to use keys ; and / as global hotkeys. Does anyone have a clue
what their codes are?

Thanks,
Ram.

What doesn't work?

The ord function certianly returns the character codes of those characters.

If thats not what your looking for then I don't know what "Does anyone
have a clue what their codes are?" means and you  may want to
elaborate further.

Sorry, I meant codes in the context of setting a global hotkey. i.e., the
codes that I need to pass to RegisterHotKey.

RegisterHotKey only works under Windows:

http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.8/wx_wxwindow.html#wxwindowregisterhotkey
http://wiki.wxpython.org/RegisterHotKey

Not quite:

http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.9.4/classwx_window.html#a53ca57872dac5851...
http://wxpython.org/Phoenix/docs/html/Window.html#Window.RegisterHotKey

Or at least I can't see any Windows-specific remarks on that method.

Anyway, I have no idea if Linux or Mac implementation actually work,
so that may just be incomplete documentation.

For the virtual hotkeys, on US keyboards only, MS reports this:

1) ';' ==> 0xba
2) '/' ==> 0xbf

Personal suggestion: don't use them :-)

Andrea.

Hi,

Did you check the remarks section of that documentation in your link ;-)

From what I understand, it appears you can register a hotkey on any
platform but you can handle the event only on Windows. Very funny (and
useful) indeed :-)
