No, It's not what you think :P/>

So here's the question:
I work on a program and want to input something, and you can press a button at the same time. So, how can I get the content of an not entered input?

If you mean to get the content before the user presses enter, you can easily modify the read() function located in bios.lua, and make it listen for mouse clicks.
