Command: devel/send-key

Deliver key input to a viewscreen.

This tool can send a key to the current screen or to a parent screen. Note that if you are trying to dismiss a screen, devel/pop-screen may be more useful, particularly if the screen is unresponsive to Esc.

Usage

devel/send-key <key> [<depth>]

The key to send is the name of an interface_key (see valid values by running :lua @df.interface_key, looking in data/init/interface.txt, or by checking df.keybindings.xml in the df-structures repository.

You can optionally specify the depth of the screen that you want to send the key to. 1 corresponds to the current screen’s parent.
