Dec 2, 2015 at 12:10	comment	added	HelloGoodbye		@neckTwi I don't think those extra operations matter, considering that a keypress doesn't happen very often. (Then it is also possible that the compiler might optimize that line to something that is equivalent to the switch–case statement above, although I don't know how much you can trust that it actually does)

Apr 19, 2015 at 15:30	comment	added	slashmais		It is a neat line - maybe you should just add a small explanatory comment to the code to assist the hard-of-reading types ;)
