NAME

       SDL_GetKeyState - Get a snapshot of the current keyboard state

SYNOPSIS

       #include "SDL.h"

       Uint8 *SDL_GetKeyState(int *numkeys);

DESCRIPTION

       Gets a snapshot of the current keyboard state. The current state is return as a pointer to
       an array, the size of this array is stored in numkeys. The array is indexed by the  SDLK_*
       symbols. A value of 1 means the key is pressed and a value of 0 means its not. The pointer
       returned is a pointer to an internal SDL array and should not be freed by the caller.

              Note:

              Use SDL_PumpEvents to update the state array.

EXAMPLE

       Uint8 *keystate = SDL_GetKeyState(NULL);
       if ( keystate[SDLK_RETURN] ) printf("Return Key Pressed.
       ");
