KeyboardChanged:Int32

Returns: True if the keyboard was used, False if not or if there is no such keyboard.

Description

Tells if the user did anything with a keyboard since the last time this was asked, which is handy to find out what to play with. Asking clears the answer. Plugging in a new keyboard counts as using it once.

Differences

• This is a BlitzLLVM extension: the original has no such command.
