  Here, this'll get you started:

  @name Keyboard
  @inputs  Keyboard:wirelink Memory      #Memory is added here as another input 
                                           #so that the E2 runs everytime the keyboard is used
  @persist  Pushed                                #Persisted so the Delta can be used to see
                                           #if a the keyboard is outputting a new ASCII Number
  @trigger  Memory                               #So that the E2 runs when Memory Changes, 
                                           #and only when Memory Changes.
                                                         #You can remove that part if you want
  
  
  Active = Keyboard["InUse",number]        #Find out if the keyboard is in use
  Pushed = sign(Memory)                        #Find out if a key is being held
  Key = toChar(Memory)                         #Translate the ASCII Number to a String for the key
  
  #I use the keyboard to switch targets and enable/disable certain weapons
  #The following is and example of the code used to determine 
  #if it should switch target class/enable a weapon
  #It will not work with just the code above, as it uses a lot of persisted variables
  #For refrences:
  # Index1 = Targeting Type, Clamped between 5 Modes, for example, Cores, Nodes, Vehicles, Players, etc
  # Index2 = Target Number, the Index used to retrieve the target from the found array
  # Beam/Pulse/Proton/Torp Index = The Index used to toggle the weapons on and off. 
  #All of the Indexes (Indexi?) are persisted
  
  
  if(Active){
      
      
      if(Key == "/" & $Pushed) {
          Index1++
          Index2 = 1
          }
      if(Index1 >= 5) {Index1 = 1}
      
      if(Key == "," & $Pushed) {Index2--}
      if(Key == "." & $Pushed) {Index2++}
      
      if(Key == "1" & $Pushed) {BeamIndex++}
      if(Key == "2" & $Pushed) {PulseIndex++}
      if(Key == "3" & $Pushed) {ProtonIndex++}
      if(Key == "4" & $Pushed) {TorpIndex++}
      if(Key == "5" & $Pushed) {MjolIndex++}
      if(Key == "6" & $Pushed) {MatterIndex++}
      if(Key == "7" & $Pushed) {AsgardFire = 1} else{AsgardFire = 0}
      
      if(BeamIndex > 1) {BeamIndex = 0}
      if(BeamIndex==1) {BeamArm = 1} else {BeamArm = 0}
      
      if(PulseIndex > 1) {PulseIndex = 0}
      if(PulseIndex==1) {PulseArm = 1} else {PulseArm = 0}
      
      if(ProtonIndex > 1) {ProtonIndex = 0}
      if(ProtonIndex==1) {ProtonArm = 1} else {ProtonArm = 0}
      
      if(TorpIndex > 1) {TorpIndex = 0}
      if(TorpIndex==1) {TorpArm = 1} else {TorpArm = 0}
      
      if(MjolIndex > 1) {MjolIndex = 0}
      if(MjolIndex==1) {MjolArm = 1} else {MjolArm = 0}    
      
      if(MatterIndex > 1) {MatterIndex = 0}
      if(MatterIndex==1) {MatterArm = 1} else {MatterArm = 0}  
  
      if(Mouse1 & PulseArm) {PulseFire = 1} else {PulseFire= 0}
      if(Mouse2 & ProtonArm) {ProtonFire = 1} else {ProtonFire= 0}
      if(Mouse2 & TorpArm) {TorpFire = 1} else {TorpFire= 0}
      if(Mouse2 & MjolArm) {MjolFire = 1} else {MjolFire= 0}
      if(Mouse2 & MatterArm) {MatterFire = 1} else {MatterFire= 0}
  
  
  #A chunk of code later...
  
  TargetArray = findToArray()
  Count = TargetArray:count()
  
  if(Index2 > Count) {Index2 = 1}
  if(Index2 < 1) {Index2 = Count}
  Selected = clamp(Index2,1,Count)
  
  Target = TargetArray[Selected,entity]
  
  
  }
  

  
  Damn Code function wrapping my text....
  
  
  Anyway, hope that helps, but Pro Tip, if you want to use a letter as a key, remember that in ASCII, "A" is the result of Shift+A, and "a" is just from pressing A. So in place of "/" or "1" above, you could use a letter, but make sure its lowercase.

  Most of the weapons have an Entity input, which will fire toward that specific enemy you give it.
  
  Try something along these lines (though my E2 is rusty, so this might be a little mistyped):

  @name Target Finder
  @inputs 
  @outputs Target:entity
  
  interval(250)
  
  if(target == noentity())
  {
       findByClass("CHANGE_THIS_TO_TARGET_ENTITY_TYPE")
       findSortByDistance(entity():pos())
       if(find())
       {
            Target = find()
       }
  }
