SDL_GetModState - Get the state of modifier keys.

#include "SDL.h"

SDLMod SDL_GetModState(void);

Returns the current state of the modifier keys (CTRL, ALT, etc.).

The return value can be an OR'd combination of the SDLMod enum.

SDLMod

typedef enum {

KMOD_NONE = 0x0000,
KMOD_LSHIFT= 0x0001,
KMOD_RSHIFT= 0x0002,
KMOD_LCTRL = 0x0040,
KMOD_RCTRL = 0x0080,
KMOD_LALT = 0x0100,
KMOD_RALT = 0x0200,
KMOD_LMETA = 0x0400,
KMOD_RMETA = 0x0800,
KMOD_NUM = 0x1000,
KMOD_CAPS = 0x2000,
KMOD_MODE = 0x4000, } SDLMod;


SDL also defines the following symbols for convenience:

#define KMOD_CTRL (KMOD_LCTRL|KMOD_RCTRL)
#define KMOD_SHIFT  (KMOD_LSHIFT|KMOD_RSHIFT)
#define KMOD_ALT  (KMOD_LALT|KMOD_RALT)
#define KMOD_META (KMOD_LMETA|KMOD_RMETA)
