fathom submitted a new resource:

Show Pressed Keys

I wanted a way to be able to show my movement keys as well as clicks on my mouse, but I was unable to find anything to my liking. I decided to create something, and I thought others may find it useful.

It looks great! Can you make a version that has Q W E R T on top, A S D F G in the middle, and Z X C Space at the bottom?

How do i run this ?

What do i need to start the .ahk files ?

 

[Sapiens]

.ahk files are for http://www.autohotkey.com/

I get this:

I get this:

It looks like you didn't download all of the files in the zip. This occurs if you don't have gdip.ahk in your lib\ folder.

I just checked, i have the gdip.ahk and the ini.ahk file in the lib\ folder :)

The only other possibility I can think of is that you are running the outdated AutoHotkey from www.autohotkey.com instead of the up-to-date AutoHotkey_L from http://ahkscript.org/. I will make a note that this is a requirement.

Well, that goes ahead and solves it... Put it in the notes for people having problems in the future.

Thank you so much, it'll be a great adition to my stream! :)

Frank, I am actually in the process of re-writing this using Node.js, so it can be used with the CLR Browser plugin. This way, you won't have to do a screen capture. Unfortunately, the way I wrote this current project is not very customization friendly.

The new project will be using html, css, and javascript, so customization will be more user-friendly. I plan to put the new project up on github quite soon.

If you want a solution that is ready for what you describe, check out Noh Board http://sourceforge.net/projects/nohboard/

EDIT: Also, because you can use web fonts, your example of photoshop tutorial would work great if there is some sort of icon font (icomoon, font-awesome, etc) out there with all of the button icons.
