KIK

Summary

Returns true if the input event corresponds to a keypress event resulting in character output.

Syntax

KeymanWeb.KIK(e);

Parameters

e

Type: Object

The event object to be evaluated.

Return Value

boolean

true if the event would produce text output, otherwise false.

Description

This function is designed to facilitate filtering of keystrokes, allowing custom-coded keyboards to ignore function-oriented keystroke events that should never be used for text generation, such as for F1-F12.

The logic corresponds to that for the keyboard language nomatch rule.
