KeyboardDeviceCount

KeyboardDeviceCount:Int32

Returns: The number of keyboards, at least 1. Where the system can't tell keyboards apart (for example on Wayland, or without a window) all of them count as one.

Description

Tells how many keyboards the program has seen. A keyboard that is unplugged is still counted, and goes on having its number, see KeyboardDeviceConnected.

Differences

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