So, what would be some example of code that would check if I have pressed the tab button, and if I press tab, add 1 to x?
Lua key presses work with callbacks. The on.tabKey function is called whenever the tab key is pressed, and on.arrowKey when an arrow key is pressed, etc...
Isn't there a key map somewhere for Lua with the valid key names in code form? (eg tabKey) We have that for Axe and BASIC, although with numbers.
Well, see the Nspire-Lua API PDF from TI or https://wiki.inspired-lua.org/Category:Events
on.charIn is probably what you want for non-arrow and non-special keys.
Oh I meant a graphical key map, like this, not a list:

But thanks anyway. I'll also check the PDF later to see if it has a graphical key map.
Oh. Unfortunately as far as I know there is no keymap because they don't have a universal getkey command. There are just interrupts called that ld studios linked.
Also here is an example of a code that increments x when you press the tab button:
function on.tabKey()
x=x+1
end
Thanks for the help, I will probably use this topic to ask more Lua questions later.

I see. Interesting. That's definitively something I would need to get used to if I learned Lua I guess, but again I don't plan to do TI-Nspire dev. Good luck SiphonicSugar!
