Send Regular Key Press #254

Hi, I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I still really need an answer!

I know I can use bleKeyboard.press(KEY_RIGHT_ARROW); to send a key press for a function key (in this case right arrow), but how can I use this library to send a single key press of a 'regular' letter key on the keyboard (for example, the letter 'L')? For some reason, I can't seem to find that information anywhere out there.

Is bleKeyboard.printIn("L"); correct? Or is that a different command from the bleKeyboard.press one?

bleKeyboard.write(32); - space bleKeyboard.write(65);- letter A bleKeyboard.write(76); - letter L bleKeyboard.write(':');

Use ASCII codes or actual letter.

Thanks, that's really helpful!

Probably another stupid question... but is there a full list of these codes for every key on a standard keyboard out there somewhere easily accessible? Just for reference, y'know?

Just search for "ASCII table". Or https://www.asciitable.com/

You can also test these codes let's say in Notepad using "ALT keys": Hold "ALT" key down and while holding it enter the code on the numeric part of the keyboard (for example 065) and the release the "ALT" key.
