Thread: I have seen this in games before.

I have seen games before that while playing, you can type in a word, and it will then do something depending on that word. I was wondering if someone could show me how that is done.

Thanks in advance, August

You'll basically be checking for KEY_DOWN messages, building a string from those particular virtual keys, and then comparing the resulting string that you get in the keyboard buffer with the strings that you want to responde to, via strcmp(); or similar.
