[Gambas-user] Finally Gambas got "SendKeys"

[Arief Bayu Purwanto]

Hi there,
I try to send F12 to lauch yakuake, but it couldn't launch it.

I try it with console:

?Desktop.SendKeys(Key.F12)
No return value
4155
?Desktop.SendKeys("F12")
No return value
F12
?Desktop.SendKeys(F12)
Unknown symbol

Did I do something wrong?
Or, SendKeys only able to send normal character, not function keys?
