#EXAMPLES

#binds = grabBind ()                                       #Grabs dictionary
#print(binds)
#print(binds['SAAThirdPersonYawAxisRaw'])                   #prints list in a list of info for bind called that
#print(binds['ExplorationFSSRadioTuningX_Increase'][0])     #prints list of info for bind
#print(binds['CommanderCreator_Undo'][0][0])                #prints the bind key for that bind
#print(binds['ExplorationFSSZoomIn'])

#The only issue with this code is that it won't pickup "Modifier"s which are keybinds as well, this seems very difficult to figure out
