Why would it need to be an instant reward? After reading a couple of Mark's

Right after sending I saw a flaw in my idea, if the £150 deal was part of a

Ben,
I'd recommend following Elanor's excellent native scroller tutorial in the
latest RevUP newsletter for your list. Once you've wrapped your head around
mobile-native controls I think you'll see that they're not difficult, and they
go a long way to taking the "clunk" out of your mobile apps.
That seems like a very useful thing.

Thanks for looking into this. Does that talk with LC? Does it trap all keys
even modifier keys? Does it trap them only if they were pressed by themselves
and not in a combination?
Looking forward to seeing this.
Thank you,

Kevin,
The keysDown() does not handle certain keys like the fn key by itself yet the
OS on Mac does, it uses the fn pressed twice to perform certain functions in
VoiceOver. Also, on Mac, the OS does not distinguish between left and right
shift keys different than how Windows does BUT it does di

I've had to do this before and ended up with a whole event loop in a
DLL, as if it were a Windows app. I don't have that in front of me
right now but I'll try to dig it up and send it to you offlist.
Do you need an external? Can you use keysDown() in a loop?
Kind regards,

Yes, there is a maximum amount for any one pledge, by one person. Kickstarter
is a crowd funding site, and it is set up so that venture capitalists cannot
simply contribute the balance and take control of a project.
So we need everyone to contribute something.
