##Usage

Include keyboard.min.js in your libraries js or html, after SpringRoll's core.min.js. After the Application is created, access the Keyboard instance with Application.instance.keyboard.

Key combo syntax:

// Whitespace is required around the '+' and '>' separators.
// '+' separates simultaneous keys
"ctrl + s";
// '>' separates sequential keys
"arrow_up > arrow_down";
// escape '>' and '+' with '\' character, although standard US keyboards don't have those
// characters without using shift and another key
"\\+ + \\>";
// sequential steps can have multiple simultaneous keys
"ctrl + x > ctrl + v";
