The easiest solution might be using a PS/2 keyboard for typing and having
a USB one for other purposes, through the event interface, as explained in
step 3 in the procedure here:

I don't know how well that connects to PD, but I'd be surprised to hear
that it can't be done.. and a universal script-invocation thingie
shouldn't be too hard either, it probably already exists somewhere.

(As this is my delurking on this list, I'd like to thank everybody for the
often valuable, sometimes entertaining and very rarely annoying mailings
