Danzeff Keyboard OSK for PSP Lua PlayerSince Danzel, the author of AFKIM, has released the stand-alone source code of the OSK (On-Screen Keyboard) in his 2.0 version of AFKIM, it itsn't a surprise that other homebrew developers have been tinkering with this one.

This time homebrew developer, cancan, has come up with an adaptation of the Danzeff OSK created by Danzel. Read on for the needed infos about this latest addition to homebrew development straight from cancan himself.

Code Usage:
First at the beginning of the your main script:
-dofile("danzeff.lua") -- This will include the danzeff.lua script in your application

-To initalize your keyboard variable with the Danzeff class: (you can put what you want as keyboard name, here I used "mykeyboard")
This must be done once per application
mykeyboard = Danzeff:New()
To initialize the keyboard and display it on the screen: x represent the x position of the keyboard on the screen, y the y position
mykeyboard:Init(x, y)

-To read the input from the keyboard: newchar if the variable where you want to store the value (it is an integer), pad is your Controls.read() variable
newchar = mykeyboard:Input(pad)

-To display the keyboard
mykeyboard:Display()

» Layout

Personally, i dont quite like the OSK layout, it would probably be best if it was similar to the phone layout, the phone layout is embedded in my mind (heavy txter) and i find this really really slow compared to Sony's keyboard which everyone else claims is uber-slow.

I'm just the opposite...



This type of input is much easier and faster than the cell phone "click me four time" style of input. SNES9xTYL, Links2/PSPRadio, PSPCAP, etc.. all use it now and I'm thankful.

This is the best OSK i've ever seen, SONYs OSK S U C K S as hell, easy to use, no multiple pressing on the buttons and search for a stupid symbol.

Danzeff did great work on this
