Editing a plug-in?

Telos · 3rd July 2004, 00:14

I recently downloaded a plugin that is used to switch between playlists. It's called playlist selector. It works well except there is a big problem I see. It only works with the keyboard standard keys but does not work at all with the keypad keys. I use a keypad to run winamp in my car and it would be nice if I could switch playlists with that. So, would if be possible for me to edit the installed plugin so that it would allow me to use the keypad keys?

Thanks

contact the author, ask him if he feels like either add support for it or send you the source.

or just write a small program that maps the keypad-keys to some other keys... really simple stuff.

for(;;){
if( (GetAsyncKeyState(VK_...) & (1<<15)) != buffered_state ) keybd_event(...);
//repeat for other keys
Sleep(10);
}

no big deal.
