Could you not start a timer and then create some kind of structure or
string made up of a time stamp and the keypress?
Can you export text files from Quartz? If so you could save it.
Or can you record midi? you could make a midi code for your keypresses.
Just thinking out loud really. Recording the screen is probably a better
way.

I was planning on doing some VJ stuff, using the keyboard. Anyone
working on a technique for recording the "live" keystrokes
for later playback? Maybe something as useful as a technique that
would let you preserve
those last 30 seconds of VJ improv that otherwise might be gone
forever. (as in, "oh wow, that was definitely cool. How did I do
that?").
For small key counts, you could simply attach a Queue patch to each
output of the Keyboard patch. This would get cumbersome if you were
using many keys though, but might be enough to get you started. (the
Queue length should be the number of frames you intend to record).
A similar technique would work with the HID patch set to keyboard.
However, this again runs into scalability problems when recording
several key inputs.
I don't know of any other patches that present key press data in any
other way in QC, so there aren't a whole lot of options for
alternatives at this point :(
