Just built from latest code this morning and can confirm that it is NOT fixed. Bluetooth keyboard works fine in landscape mode, but does not work at all in portrait mode.

In ScummVM 2.1.0 you can enable the external keyboard in landscape mode using the pinch in gesture (and then disable it using the pinch out gesture).

This is not enabled by default as if no external keyboard is connected this would result in the on screen virtual keyboard being shown (which we don't want by default). And unfortunately there is no iOS public API to detect the presence of an external keyboard, and would require some horrible hack.

So I am closing this as I think the pinch in gesture to enable the keyboard is a good enough solution. Feel free to reopen if you disagree (and explain why you disagree).

Also I am assuming that Purduecoz mixed up landscape and portrait in his last comment, and meant that the bluetooth keyboard was working in portrait mode and not working in landscape mode (as in the original report).
