In a new stack, place the following in the card script:
on optionKeyDown pKeyName
if platform() = "MacOS" then
put numToChar(charToNum(pKeyName)-128) into tKey1 -- original sample from
Dictionary
put numToCodePoint(codepointToNum(pKeyName)-128) into tKey2 -- trying using non-deprecated
functions
answer pKeyName,tKey1,tKey2
else -- windows
answer pKeyName
end if
end optionKeyDown
The equivalent new functions for numToChar and charToNum is numToNativeChar and
nativeCharToNum. Those return the same values as the originals. However, I'm still getting the
wrong result. I can subtract 94 to get lower-case "f" but that isn't consistent; the amount to
subtract varies depending on the value of pKeyName. So there's some trick I'm missing.
Tested on Mac.
