Glad you got it working.
Yes, I suppose it could be confusing. My understanding is that keyboard are
generally sending events to a specific window, as that would be how the OS
handles it. Joysticks on the other hand are more independent, so they have
their own events.
Pyglet is undergoing a bit of a modernisation effort at the moment, and the
documentation could be out of date or confusing in a few places. If you
have the time, I'd encourage you to start a new thread with any suggestions
you have or bugs/mistakes/etc. you find. I'm a new user myself also, but
have started contributing a bit.
