The chrUpArrow & chrDownArrow keys currently can't be created using
Graffiti. Currently only Gremlins will generate these keyDown events.

Actually the vertical up/down Graffiti strokes generate the
vchrPrevField & vchrNextField characters, not the chrUpArrow &
chrDownArrow characters.
As a side note, vchrPrevField/vchrNextField are virtual. They will
have the command bit set in the event record's modifier field, and
they should not be passed on through to the field code - the
application is responsible for handling them.
And, just to complicate things a bit more, the vchrPrevField keyDown
event (and a few others) didn't have the command bit set in older
versions of Palm OS (pre-3.2). If your app needs to run on 3.1 and
older versions of Palm OS, and you care about virtual characters,
then you should call the TxtGlueCharIsVirtual routine in the
PalmOSGlue library.
