How to track Key Stroke Events? [message #58459]

I was wondering if it is a fairly straightforward process to keep track of
the keystrokes that are occuring in Eclipe's file editor view?

I want to be able to track what characters are being inserted/deleted to
pass over a connection, but I wasn't sure if it's something that will be
easy with Eclipse. Is there a specific API I should look at?

thanks for any help...

You will find threads about this in the deprecated newsgroup
eclipse.tools or via Eclipse search page. Detecting what's being
inserted in the document is not that hard (see for example
IDocumentListener) while getting all key strokes is harder because the
key binding service might catch some of them before they reach the editor.
