Hi all, but mainly Tim Golden: Tim, I am using your wonderful message loop for keyboard input, the one on your site that you pointed me to a few months ago. It has been working perfectly as long as I had only one dictionary of keys mapping to one dictionary of functions, but now I want two of each. My program has different modes, which may have varying keystrokes, and I also have some global keystrokes which are the same across all modes, like exiting or switching modes. I cannot figure out how to make the message loop look in two dictionaries at onc. I tried using an if, saying that if action_to_take was not set in the mode-specific dictionary then look at the global dictionary, but it is like it is never looking in the global dictionary at all. I get no syntax errors or problems when running the program, so it has to be something in my logic. Go to http://www.gateway2somewhere.com/sw/main.pyw
Happy to look, Alex, but that link's giving me a 404 at the moment TJG -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
