module: [kind=event] char
see: key To listen to any key press.
---
The @{char} event is fired when a character is _typed_ on the keyboard.
The @{char} event is different to a key press. Sometimes multiple key presses may result in one character being
typed (for instance, on some European keyboards). Similarly, some keys (e.g. <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>) do not have any
corresponding character. The @{key} should be used if you want to listen to key presses themselves.
## Return values
1. @{string}: The event name.
2. @{string}: The string representing the character that was pressed.
## Example
Prints each character the user presses:
```lua
while true do
local event, character = os.pullEvent("char")
print(character .. " was pressed.")
end
```

---
module: [kind=event] key
---
This event is fired when any key is pressed while the terminal is focused.
This event returns a numerical "key code" (for instance, <kbd>F1</kbd> is 290). This value may vary between versions and
so it is recommended to use the constants in the @{keys} API rather than hard coding numeric values.
If the button pressed represented a printable character, then the @{key} event will be followed immediately by a @{char}
event. If you are consuming text input, use a @{char} event instead!
## Return values
1. [`string`]: The event name.
2. [`number`]: The numerical key value of the key pressed.
3. [`boolean`]: Whether the key event was generated while holding the key (@{true}), rather than pressing it the first time (@{false}).
## Example
Prints each key when the user presses it, and if the key is being held.
```lua
while true do
local event, key, is_held = os.pullEvent("key")
print(("%s held=%b"):format(keys.getName(key), is_held))
end
```

module: [kind=event] key_up
see: keys For a lookup table of the given keys.

Fired whenever a key is released (or the terminal is closed while a key was being pressed).
This event returns a numerical "key code" (for instance, <kbd>F1</kbd> is 290). This value may vary between versions and
so it is recommended to use the constants in the @{keys} API rather than hard coding numeric values.
## Return values
1. @{string}: The event name.
2. @{number}: The numerical key value of the key pressed.
## Example
Prints each key released on the keyboard whenever a @{key_up} event is fired.
```lua
while true do
local event, key = os.pullEvent("key_up")
local name = keys.getName(key) or "unknown key"
print(name .. " was released.")

---
module: [kind=event] mouse_click
---
This event is fired when the terminal is clicked with a mouse. This event is only fired on advanced computers (including
advanced turtles and pocket computers).
## Return values
1. @{string}: The event name.
2. @{number}: The mouse button that was clicked.
3. @{number}: The X-coordinate of the click.
4. @{number}: The Y-coordinate of the click.
## Mouse buttons
Several mouse events (@{mouse_click}, @{mouse_up}, @{mouse_scroll}) contain a "mouse button" code. This takes a
numerical value depending on which button on your mouse was last pressed when this event occurred.
<table class="pretty-table">
<!-- Our markdown parser doesn't work on tables!? Guess I'll have to roll my own soonish :/. -->
<tr><th>Button code</th><th>Mouse button</th></tr>
<tr><td align="right">1</td><td>Left button</td></tr>
<tr><td align="right">2</td><td>Middle button</td></tr>
<tr><td align="right">3</td><td>Right button</td></tr>
</table>
## Example
Print the button and the coordinates whenever the mouse is clicked.
```lua
while true do
local event, button, x, y = os.pullEvent("mouse_click")
print(("The mouse button %s was pressed at %d, %d"):format(button, x, y))
end

module: [kind=event] mouse_drag
see: mouse_click For when a mouse button is initially pressed.
---
This event is fired every time the mouse is moved while a mouse button is being held.
## Return values
1. @{string}: The event name.
2. @{number}: The [mouse button](mouse_click.html#Mouse_buttons) that is being pressed.
3. @{number}: The X-coordinate of the mouse.
4. @{number}: The Y-coordinate of the mouse.
## Example
Print the button and the coordinates whenever the mouse is dragged.
```lua
while true do
local event, button, x, y = os.pullEvent("mouse_drag")
print(("The mouse button %s was dragged at %d, %d"):format(button, x, y))
end

module: [kind=event] mouse_scroll
---
This event is fired when a mouse wheel is scrolled in the terminal.
## Return values
1. @{string}: The event name.
2. @{number}: The direction of the scroll. (-1 = up, 1 = down)
3. @{number}: The X-coordinate of the mouse when scrolling.
4. @{number}: The Y-coordinate of the mouse when scrolling.
## Example
Prints the direction of each scroll, and the position of the mouse at the time.
```lua
while true do
local event, dir, x, y = os.pullEvent("mouse_scroll")
print(("The mouse was scrolled in direction %s at %d, %d"):format(dir, x, y))
end

3. @{number}: The X-coordinate of the mouse.
4. @{number}: The Y-coordinate of the mouse.
## Example
Prints the coordinates and button number whenever the mouse is released.

while true do
local event, button, x, y = os.pullEvent("mouse_up")
print(("The mouse button %s was released at %d, %d"):format(button, x, y))
