Script wait for input

[Erenna]

Hey there. I'm trying to make a script that waits for a keypress, then stores it in a variable. Problem is, I can't figure out how to make the script pause until input is given. Anyone know how to do this? (Yes, I do realize this is probably fairly simple for most people, but none the less.)

OnKeyDown (OBSE function)

 

this example reacts to numeric key 0. For other key codes, check the OnKeyDown WIKI page.

 

   if OnKeyDown   82   ;  NUM0
     <do things>
  endif

...OK, should've been more specific. What I want it to do, is react to -any- key that's pressed and store the key that's pressed in a variable.

Check the OBSE doc. The "Input Functions" section have other functions that may interest you
