Thanks Joe, we will peruse that, I wonder who wrote it? These lessons
don't have "bylines".
When we figure out I will post the solution so nobody ever has to go

Well reasoned, very interesting, and fair enough. I am way past trying to
force HC onto Rev, and anyway in most cases the difference is an improvement.

This was one of the unsung, and unsupported features (bugaboos?) of HC.
It all started when one tried to, say, "put someThing into the foundLine".
A "do" construction was required to perform a multiple evaluation of the

I would like to use the variable as a condition and see if it is true. I

Thanks for the reply.
I tried that, after finding the link to "dispatch" while rereading stuff
about "send" in the dictionary. But although the typed letter appears in msg,
it does not appear in the field. At least I get no errors, though.
My uninformed opinion is that "send" and "dis
Jim.
First--- I sent the message explicitly to the stack, hoping it would make
it to the engine. In HC this works as advertised ("keydown" is a message that
Rev should understand); it certainly does when I pass it, as opposed to
sending it, which is sort of the point.
Second--- Understood. But

you need to use the revFontLoad and revFontUnload commands to include
a font, it's not done automatically. Note that lots of fonts have very
restrictive licenses, so make sure you do have the right to
redistribute the fonts in question.

Since the handler is in a field script, it is not in the message
hierarchy when the SEND is executed, thus 'can't find handler'
There is no keydown handler in the stack script.
