Re: violation



I've been away for two weeks, and somebody may already have mentioned this, in which case I apologize.  But I read and respond to accumulated e-mail chronologically.
 
I have occasionally experienced something in XY3+ that may be what Morris encountered.  I call it "keyboard confusion," in which without pressing Alt or any other combination that would call for a Save/Get, the computer pretends that I had pressed the Alt key.  When this happened, if memory serves me well, I also discovered that the Shift key had assumed the Ctrl key functions, and the CTRL key had assumed the default role of no Shift, Alt or Ctrl.  On these occasions, which have been very few and probably related to challenged memory management, I closed out the open windows, quit the program, and reinvoked the program.  Doing this cleared up the problem.

Morris:

It means that there is no text or program assigned to the pressed
key; more precisely, that the Save/Get associated with that key in
the KBD file is uninitialized.  Ordinary KBD-file Save/Gets are in
the form @X, where X is a letter or number, but the same error
results if you try to execute an uninitialized ampersand-type
Save/Get, &X, or, in XPL, a numbered Save/Get (e.g., if your program
attempts without first assigning content with ).  In
Xy3 the error message is "No Save Get".
