Ok. If you need any help, let me know. Basically, what you do is:

include p_sprint.h

put this up somewhere as a global variable so you can also look at previous keypresses if necessary (sometimes useful):

struct myKey as p_spKey

and then in your main loop where you read the controller for, say, mouse input through the analog controller, you add this:

p_spReadKeyEx(&myKey,pad.Buttons)
if(myKey.keycode > 0)
{
// a key was pressed
switch(myKey.keycode)
{
// deal with the special codes like backspace, enter and so on
// keycodes correspond with default WinPC keycodes, which you
// can find in the online documentation if necessary

// check for modifiers if necessary in myKey.modifiers
// where CTRL = 1, SHIFT = 2, ALT = 4, CTRL+SHIFT = 3, etc.

// if no special keys you want to handle were pressed,
// you can just output the character value in myKey.keychar
}
}

For a more detailed example you can look at the sourcecode of the p_sprint test application, which contains something very similar to the above.
