Hi

I want to write a small prog/applet that does nothing but the following:
Display icons representing the keys pressed on the keyboard in a small
"always on top" but transparent window. The keys must always be read - even
when the proggy has no focus- but not erased from the keyboard buffer so
the active app still catches them.

I don't want you to do the work for me, but some good pointers or tips would
be very nice! I am a novice+ in c#
Are there any standard functions I might want to look at ? Or does anyone
here know of such a program already so I don't have to make it myself ? I
have something that displays an entire keyboard, but that's rather clumsy
for my purpose (I want to include the keystrokes in a video tutorial)

Hope I am clear !
TIA
Pjotr
