My script is:You are mixing up control structures. The "case" statement has to be part of a "switch" structure. It should be like this:
on controlkeydown what
put the shiftkey into s
put the optionkey into o
if what is in "HJKLI:;" then
case "J"
if s is down then
if o is down then
-- script to select text back a word
else
-- script to move cursor back a word
end if
else
if o is down then
-- script to select text back a character
else
-- script to move cursor back a character
end if end if
break
case "K"
etc.
Any ideas what might be going wrong?
if what is in "HJKLI:;" then
switch what -- need this
case "J"
-- stuff
break
case "K"
-- stuff
break
end switch -- need this too
end if
Actually, you don't even need the "if" part; the switch structure itself will test for the contents of "what". So you could just do it this way:
on controlkeydown what
switch what
case "J"
-- stuff
break
case "K"
-- stuff
break
default -- this should probably be in there too
pass controlkeydown
end switch
end controlkeydown
