Hi Lenard
I figured out that you were deliberately vague, but I thought that he
might use some more specific help based on his response ("Well, it was
not doing anything anyway, so I commented it out. The
error is now gone"). This looked for me as he didn't find the real
problem (which is the combination of lines 38, 40 and 68, as you state
in the latest emails).
For the ctrl-arrow problem: on win systems the ctrl-arrow causes the
cursor to move from word to word in a text editor (instead from
character to charachter). This is probably a special event send on the
windows message queue which pygame does not handle as far as I know.

Hi DROID,
I was being deliberately vague because I understand Alex is a student,
and this is a project (?). As for the crtl-down, that doesn't appear
to be Pygame. It doesn't cause a window switch on me for instance. So
it is being handled before it reaches Pygame. Could it be an
Accessibility feature?

acting like I had hit alt-tab or another keystroke to switch focus out
of the pygame window and into the window behind it.
Hi
Take a look at line 38, there you quit pygame, but in line 68 (which
you took out) you tell the loop to continue. If you quit pygame and
still call pygame.event.get() you get the video not initialized error
(took me a while to see what Lenard said).
For the odd behavior of you ctrl-down, I'm not sure what should
happen, so I cant tell if it is doing what you want it to do.
