Screen key is a simple but complete application that will allow us to capture on screen the keystrokes that we do while recording: Screenkey.
Screenkey gives us the possibility of showing on screen the keystrokes in a nice way and with enough customization options so that the pop-up windows looks professional.
We also can use colors that contrast with the application that we are recording. And this can be very important for applications that require intensive use of keyboard shortcuts.
