Is there a simple way to record the actual value of a keyboard response, as opposed to the scancode (e.g. "1" not 2)?
Thanks

No, there isn't, I'm afraid. You'd essentially have to construct a lookup-table (and that won't generalize across keyboard layouts / different languages).

It's strange though because the program is able to associate values with scancodes, for example validresponse = ("1"). Just thinking out loud.
