By default the virtual keyboard code is disabled from a ScummVM build.

Once the keyboard pack path and name are defined the loading code looks for a valid keyboard pack. First it looks for an uncompressed pack by looking for a file with the name ''[packname]''.xml in the keyboard pack directory. If it does not find this it will look for a compressed pack by looking for a file with the name ''[packname]''.zip. | Once the keyboard pack path and name are defined the loading code looks for a valid keyboard pack.
