set an action on keyboard events

[entroid]

Hi!
I'm new in the forum. Sorry for my english, itґs not the best...

Is there any way to set something like: when 72 key is pressed, display a help window?
Can i set an action for a specific keyboard event somehow?
I would appreciate any guideline to this.
greetings!

Keyboard event listener would be the way to go they say.

Here a little bit about it from Adobe. (http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00000311.html)

I don't know if this needs to be made into a plugin... or if the code itself will be enough.

in case it doesnґt, how can i put it into a plug in...?
