On OSX I can get keypress to collect keystrokes when the slot has the
focus but not when the edit_line had the focus.
For portability you might consider a submit style button.

Last I checked (Shoes2), keygrabbing in an edit_line does not work in
Windows or OSX with Shoes.
Has this changed?

Crash for r.1123 as well.
Adding a begin, rescue clause with an alert around the case

With and without that correction it crashes on Windows XP for shoes
r.1134. For earlier versions r.811, r.905 I get no entry boxes or
text displayed. The crash is the "Send errors to Microsoft" type of
crash.
The error is triggered by typing 1 into the customer number field.
I can't extract the report that would be sent to microsoft to paste
it here <ctrl-A> won't select the text in it, and it won't respond
to the mouse.
Having the shoes error console up doesn't yield any useful
information. It could be under the other window if the info is
short, but I can't bring ti to the top after the crash. I've
minimized the overlap as best as I can.
I've not tried uncommenting the bits commented out yet.

You need to use double quotes to escape \n. Currently, you have

I hate it when this happens to me.

If you uncomment the two lines and remove the ,'\n' from teh
first when
clause i can get the numeric enter key to be caught when pressed.
both key return the value 13 from a test page i got directed to
(I think at
shoes home page (else I've forgot where - know _why was the
author anyway).
Shoes.app do
def what_has_data
if @custno.text.length > 0
alert 'You entered a value into the Customer Number edit line'
else
if @custname.text.length > 0
alert 'You entered a value into the Customer Name edit line'
end

end
flow :top => 100, :height => 80 do
para strong "Customer nos"
@custno = edit_line :width => 50
para strong 'customer name'
@custname = edit_line :width => 270
keypress do |key|
case key
when :enter, '\n'

#uncomment the 2 lines below & delete this and the begin - end
pairs
