As mentioned, you can grab the game loop code from the forum and it will do all the loop and setup as written (including dispatching updatescreen) Hope you get a brain storm and find another method. (or a brain tsunami maybe, bigger is better) The walk, picking and beer sounds like a good idea, t

file a bug report. other then that, workaround is obviously to check if revDatabaseConnectResult(gDBID) is empty, and then create your own error. On 02.05.2012, at 03:23, Peter Haworth wrote: > Unless I'm misunderstanding something, the above function doesn't work, at > least with sqlite. > >

Another option might be to write an external that does the polling and dispatches a message when the shift key is pressed, and there might be other methods of course. Hopefully someone else has a better solution. Either way, unless rev adds the feature sounds like you may have to bite the bullet a
