This note pertains to R:Base for DOS 6.5++. Any enlightening comments would
be appreciated.
Lastkey:
+--------------------------------- SYNTAX -------------------------------------+
� �
� Gets the text value for the last key read from the keyboard. If a key has �
� been remapped you get the remapped key using 0 for the parameter. If you �
� use 1 for the parameter you will get the original key before remapping. �
� �
� (LASTKEY(0)) �
� or �
� (LASTKEY(1)) �
� �
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Doesn't appear to work. One gets the same value returned from the LASTKEY
function whether or not the key has been remapped.
For example in the following code "[F8]" is returned in both vt and vx when
LASTKEY is used with the arguments shown. When argument "0" is used LASTKEY
should return "[F4]".
-------------------------------------
SET KEYMAP [F8] OFF
SET KEYMAP [F8] = [F4]
WHILE 2 > 1 THEN
FILLIN vy=0 USING 'vy:'
SET VAR vt = (LASTKEY(0))
SHO VAR vt
SET VAR vx = (LASTKEY(1))
SHO VAR vx
IF vt = '[Esc]' THEN
Break
ENDIF
ENDWHILE
