  • SyncTerm and numeric keypad

    From Nightfox@VERT to Deuce on Fri Jul 3 09:02:54 2015
    Hi Deuce,

    If I recall correctly, I think you maintain SyncTerm, is that correct? I'm using version 1.0b, and recently I noticed that the numeric keypad on the keyboard behaves opposite of normal with SyncTerm - SyncTerm accepts numbers from the numeric keypad only if numlock is off - that is opposite of the way I would expect. Is that a known issue?

    It's a known issue with SDL. Once I get the 1.0 release done (soon, honest!), I'll be moving to SDL2 which claims to not have this issue any more.
