[Bf-education] Key Display in Blender?

[Ronald Mourant]

Hi Nick,

Go to:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Extensions:2.5/Py/Scripts/3D_interaction/Screencast_Key_Status_Tool

Download the py file and put it in Blender's addons folder.

I have not used it in teaching but it certainly is useful for making
tutorials.  I'm taking Andrew Price's Nature Academy and find it very
valuable.
