Greetings,
I was wondering if anyone had a complete (or almost complete) listing of
the keyboard codes returned when monitoring port[$60]. Thanks!

Hi, I made once a complete listing of all scan-codes. It has been very
usefull to me!
BUT!!!!!! I have an AZERTY-keyboard ! So, here's a program, just press the
keys you want to know the code of, and it will appear on your screen. Good
luck!

SPECIAL KEYS...
NUMLOCK, SCROLLOCK, PAUSE, SHIFTLOCK, SHIFT
There is a strange combination of codes with these keys... You have first a
different combination, but then they all display 250... I don't understand
it...
NUMLOCK 250/69 SCROLLOCK 250/70 PAUSE 225/25
SHIFTLOCK 250/58 SHIFT(both) 250

Thanks for the info. The easiest solutions go unnoticed sometimes, I can't
believe I missed thinking of doing that ;}
