Re: Keyboard in XyScript



Continuing to take up the list's space/time withlacing the kbd file with the one Carl just sent over (with the typo correction checked and verified), verifying proper load with MSG $KB, still, pressing shift-' brings error unknown command "/"". I suspect XyScript loading grabs the former kbd file (with the typo) from memory somewhere—I don't know if that's possible but cannot figure any other reason for this to be still happening.

That's just a typo; should be 16=\" [backspace][quote]. It occurs in several places -- fixed in the attached file. A lone double quotation mark is a control character; to serve as itself it has to be "escaped" with a backslash.

Best,
Carl
