Here's a crazy idea. Has anyone done a keylogger program where you can see a history of the latest keystrokes in plain english? It would be a good way to figure out what your buddies are really up to when you loan them that calc during algebra class. Maybe it could even tell you if any vars were modified?

| I like it! I would use it just for fun, but thats a cool idea! You could make a full on spying pogram, so it could tell if they changed a program, write thair own and deleted it, or even have a setting so that they cant delete anything and make the options menu password protected! I have sooo many ideas... |

| It would depend on how much memory you would be prepared to allocate to storing the keypresses. I think 2000-4000 bytes is a reasonable amount; create an appvar and a keyhook which would edit that appvar, then another program which would read the appvar and give you the most recent keys (the ones that fit in the appvar; I assume it would start off with the index of the last key written, and wrap around when it got to the end. Possibly also turn key recording on/off with some unlikely key combination such as [on][enter]. |

I guess if we wanted to be really elaborate, you could hide the keylogger and appvar make the whole thing invisible just like WheresMyProgs. Then get a snapshot of the ramsize and VAT tables. Would it be possible to keep all vars from getting changed or is that going overboard?

| It would mess things up for the person using the calculator if it were possible. Can't even play a simple game (in Basic). |

Sounds cool, but this would only be for fun. I'm sure your gf isn't cheating on you with your borrowed calculator (what keyloggers are usually used for?).  |

Sounds like a keehook may be in order. I am thinking of an assembly program that on execution loads a key hook and all it's code in memory then deletes itself.
It can then monitor all keys in TI-OS and probably basic programs.
A certain keypress would bring the program up to show reports... and the exit option could unload the hook, and write the program back. |

| I don't think this would be too difficult, the value of the last pushed key is stored in 'A' after _getkey. |

| If your girlfriend were your calculator... ah, I'll shut up now. This train of thought is getting a little too disturbing. |
