Getting direct Joystick data in Dashboard

[NeatNit]

Very simple: I want to be able to read joystick values in the dashboard directly from the DS - it seems stupid to get the data from the robot with big delays when the actual joysticks are connected to the machine I want to see them on. Plus, the use I have for it will not work with any delays whatsoever.

Also, I might be interested in getting keyboard presses for the Dashboard as well. Are there any buttons, aside from F1 Enter and Space, that I shouldn't use? (also, if you could just point me in the right direction for getting keyboard presses... I can figure out how to use it, just show me where it is)


Thanks!
