Re: [Tkc] tkcPlayer on iPaq [and OPIE]

Hey OPIE/iPaq developers,

Please read the following and see if anyone can help.

I'll do whatever I can to help, unfortunately I am not a programmer.

How can I find out what the keycodes the action pad sends? Or whatever sort
of event it raises?

Is there anyone willing to work with tkc to create a function or whatever is
needed to let an app be controlled by the action pad?
