Re: Keyboard in XyScript



I'm going to chime in again here; I'm using XyScript (attempting to get it smoothed out) on MacOS Tahoe. The main issue�ctrl-o opens a finder-like choice box, ctrl-a selects all text—and some of them do nothing—ctrl-w, properly, as I can tell it, configured in the kbd file as ab/v—does nothing. It seems hit or miss. I'm the first to recognize the probability of operator error, but in this case, the kbd file seems without errors, as far as I can tell, and it does load at startup. I wonder if there are any other MacOS users in the group who might chime in? I know there's Linux being used so maybe there's some input there?
Thanks to all . . .

Yeah, I meant: let's get it out of the way. XyWrite does that by making it have a different fg and bg but why not put"534" height="444">

I'm unable to find a good Windows Paint substitute in Linux Mint, but I got as far as the above mockup.

Harry,

I've implemented the things you asked for, but I'm not sure what you mean by this:

Are you saying you want to be able move the path indicator up to the windowser interface proper. Or do you mean something else?
