Hi,<br>
you can use only [hid] and send<br>
[open 0(<br>
message before you poll then a<br>
[1(<br>
message to start polling. device 0 is the keyboard on osx (at least I<br>
think this is always the case, not sure, you can use "print" to get a<br>
list of devices.)<br>
then go with route and select, bla bla.<br>
there seems to be a printout bug, because I get a mass of printout to<br>
the console. "output this:..." although I don't want this.<br>
