I’m capturing the keyboard keys that are pressed by the CreateKeyboardHook event, where it returns all the keys that were pressed (making it a keylogger, without storing or anything like that, just printing to the console)

    Sub Main()
        Try
            Dim Kbd As New KeyboardStroke
            Dim hookTask As Task = Task.Run(Sub()
                                                Kbd.CreateKeyboardHook(Sub(keyPressed)
                                                                           Console.Write(keyPressed)
                                                                       End Sub)
                                                Application.Run()
                                            End Sub)
            hookTask.Wait()
        Catch ex As Exception
        End Try
    End Sub

I “ran into” a problem (I don’t know if it can be said to be a problem, as it is a function that listens to the keyboard keys) which is the issue of accentuation. I did several searches to try to combine accent + letter and didn’t find anything related (any function specifically for this)

Would there be any way to deal with this? I thought of something related to recording the last key pressed and if that key is an accent, it waits for the next letter or key pressed, so if it is a vowel, it would combine the accent + the vowel (as vowels are the only letters that receive an accent , different from consonants..)

However, I was unable to apply or find any function that performs this “correction”.
Of course this is something specific, like pt-BR keyboard layouts (for example)

The CreateKeyboardHook function follows:

Public Sub CreateKeyboardHook(ByVal keyPressedCallback As Action(Of KeyPressed))
        Me.keyPressedCallback = keyPressedCallback
        Me.HookKeyboardDelegate = AddressOf HookKeyboardCallbackImplementation
        Me.globalKeyboardHookId = User32.SetWindowsHookEx(WH_KEYBOARD_LL, Me.HookKeyboardDelegate, Me.currentModuleId, 0)
    End Sub

For a better understanding (avoid huge codes, but if necessary I will share them with you..)

• the keyPressedCallback parameter is executed whenever the key is pressed (it is a way of defining what should happen when a keyboard event occurs)

• the SetWindowsHookEx method is used to install a keyboard hook procedure, it receives some parameters such as the hook type (in this case WH_KEYBOARD_LL) a pointer to the function that will be called whenever a keyboard event occurs (the HookKeyboardDelegate), the handle of the current module, and a handle to the thread associated with the keyboard hook.

• the HookKeyboardCallbackImplementation method is the function that will be called whenever a keyboard event occurs. It receives event information, such as the key code (nCode), the type of message (wParam) and a pointer to a structure that contains information about the key (lParam) here is where the actual processing of keyboard events happens

Below is a capture of the event:
