      prints the code to the ruby console

      class KeysTool 
      def onKeyDown(key, rpt, flags, view)
      puts "key; " + key.to_s + ", repeat; " + rpt.to_s + ", flags; " + flags.to_s
      end
      end
      Sketchup.active_model.select_tool KeysTool.new
      

      paste the above code into webconsole, execute
      after that focus from the webconsole to sketchup and pressing keyboard prints respective codes to the console

        no, sorry for causing confusion. this is only helpful when developing tool plugins and you want to use keyboard to control your tool behavior, you need a code of each key so that you can specify what to look for. these codes are nowhere to be found (su ruby api) so only way I found is to run the key discovery tool posted above and pressing keyboard print respective codes to the ruby console.
