Map Key ID to Run - Abolfazl - 2015-06-29
I used the Keymap Editor addon to find out exactly what Key ID my delete button is on my keyboard. It is 61575. I am trying to map that key id to run a certain function. I found the gen.xml file in my /userdata/keymaps folder so I thought I would just add the following function
<key id="61575">RunScript("/home/osmc/.kodi/userdata/switch.py")</key>
Unfortunately this is not working. Am I correct in adding it to the gen.xml file? Is it supposed to go somewhere else?
To debug, I ran `python /home/osmc/.kodi/userdata/switch.py` and the function worked as expected. Is RunScript() deprecated?
Thanks in advance for the help!

I don't know about the RunScript,
but the location for the key addon is in /home/osmc/.kodi/userdata/keyboards/ in a file which should probably be called keyboard.xml or remote.xml.
You can find about this stuff in the kodi wiki.

So I turned on debugging and pushed the delete button and it turns out the action is being invoked. But for some reason I do not have the desired output. Is there a way to have my python script output to the debugging file so I can add some print statements or something?
Here is a snippet of my log: http://pastebin.com/VcFGL17M

I did 'import xbmc' at the top and it said xbmc was not found. I thought xbmc can only be included from addons.
