Do the keyman developper exist a any key input or any symbol selection

Keyman

for example
can keyman developer detect a “any symbol”
because I am developing IME
the IME will contain hundred thousands of symbols, it is almost impossible to store them one by one.
My idea is to store the character between ’ ’ and set rules to let the keyboard find the character between the ’ ’
so can keyman detect an any symbol
If not, can keyman store consist of unicode instead of type them one by one, for example:
store(U+0001 U+0002 … U+1000)
in this way because the chinese characters are always concentrated on certain unicode numbers, I can still use this way to detect characters.

On the other way, can keyman set a rule of anykey
If you push any key on the keyboard, they will trigger the rule.

Hello @Cathaylab,

Thank you for your interesting ideas. Currently, store() couldn’t contain a wide range of Unicode point like what you mentioned.

For more details on Keyman language, please take a look at Language Structure.

Thanks!

Or do those any key or any symbol exist?

Are you referring to any() statement?

You can take a look at the explanation here.

I mean Can the function just bypass or ignore the context in one space?

I’m sorry but that might not be possible.

You could consider notany (notany())
