F-keys in java
 

Hello...

is there any way of making java listen or capture an F-key input? i mean, like, if the user presses F5, a new panel will come up and that sorts of things...

thnx

The KeyEvent class has constants for each of the F-keys. You can use a KeyAdapter to listen for a key press, although this is an abstract class so of course you will need to write your own extension. Check out the API on both of these classes for more details.
