Todo
Would benefit from code to initialize the keyboard Makerimages
Add info on: scan codes, changing led lights, handle shift/caps etc, etc... - Jhawthorn Maybe change name to "Keyboard programming" or similar, since it's not only about getting a key.
- How about changing the name to just 'Keyboards'? I've noticed that this is the only page on the wiki dealing with just keyboards, so it would make some sense. --Alboin
- Would this be okay? --Alboin
- I'd call it PS2 Keyboard - Combuster 08:15, 14 July 2007 (CDT)
- Moved and done. --Alboin
- Heh - I broke stuff! This should be a (platform neutral) "PS/2 Keyboards" page, and shouldn't have any information about "PS/2 Controller" or other types of keyboard (e.g. we should have a "USB Keyboard" or "USB HID" page). We probably also need a generic "User Input" page too. --Brendan 23:05, 24 March 2012 (CDT)

Broken forum link
The link to the thread about "loading Arabic fonts" takes me to a thread titled "what is sequence to be followed for developing ones own OS?" instead. --Messiahandrw 15:02, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Escaped Scancodes
In the example, shouldn't:
if (escaped) new_scan_code += 256;
be more something like this ?
if (escaped)
{
new_scan_code += 256;
escaped = 0;
}
