First--------
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.
Second-------
If you made a change and did this
send ("keydown" && var) to ME
which means the script container...
you would be creating an infinite loop and get
I get an error of "Recursion limit reached" if no time interval is
specified
Third---------
Try this to see the loop that never stops
on keyDown var
if the optionkey is down then exit to top
send ("keydown" && var) to ME in 1 second
get "keydown" && var && "to this stack"
put IT && the ticks
end keyDown
Hope this helps,

Just when I was thinking I had the differences between HC and Rev
down, I
stumble.
I have an editable field with this handler:
on keyDown var
send "keydown" && var to this stack
put var
end keyDown
In HC, any text I type gets placed into the field, so typing works
normally, but then I can do stuff with the last char, like put it
into the msg box.
Actually, in HC, I say "to Hypercard", but it makes no difference.
But in Rev I get an error message stating that Rev "can't find
handler near
"keyDown".
Can't wait to see where this divergence between the two lies...
Thanks,
