WASD and Keyboard Text Entry

[Migasand]

Hello, I'm a novice at scripting, but I was able to do some interesting stuff, including changing the directions input to WASD keys. However I also use the Keyboard Text Entry option, and when I try to write A or D, the cursor moves to left or right, without writing anything.
I would like to keep both WASD and Keyboard Text Entry, so could anyone please give me some lights on how to solve this?
Thanks

press F1 during game

press F1 during game

But that only allows me to change controls while playing, right? So every time I wanted to name a Pokémon or a Player, or input some other kind of text, I would have to manually change my controls, and afterwards back to normal... I'm looking for something more automatic...

No... just change the setting script to "Keyboard Text Entry " and you should be fine

But F1 doesn't allow me to change the direction keys...
But that's ok, I was able to create a bypass by adding changing the controls of A and D to
when Input::LEFT
return [0x25, !$usekeyboard ? 0x41 : 0x25 ] # Left
when Input::RIGHT
return [0x27, !$usekeyboard ? 0x44 : 0x27 ] # Right

where $usekeyboard is a variable initated at false. Then, at the textentry script, I added after Graphics.update in pbEntry1
$usekeyboard=true
Input.update

and before return ret:
$usekeyboard=false
Input.update

Nevertheless thank you for your help
