Re: [pygame] eventstates

[Knapp <magick.crow@xxxxxxxxx>]

I this case I made it up. It is simple. It is just a dictionary that
is refrenced by e.key or e.button. It is true or false. I set it true
on button down and false on button up. In this way I can track the
state of everybutton on the keyboard. There is most likely a better
way but I did not know the system that well so I did it in a way the I
know works in a way I understand.
