I am trying to make a program that outputs some data when I press a physical key on my keyboard. Is there anyway to do this without having either the cmd selected or a gui? Thanks, Not sure how clear this sounds, but if you need clarification ask and I'll try again

The question is not clear... what is your GUI.... where you want input the keys... What is the application from which user is interacting with your app... – Pavan Kumar K May 27 '13 at 05:41
