Hi, Phil,
I'm sure that there are several ways. One way is demonstrated as follows:
l: layout [
text "Press Return or Escape"
key keycode #"^M" [
t/text: "Return"
show t
unview l
]
key keycode escape [
t/text: "Escape"
show t
unview l
]
]
view layout [
t: text 100x16 "none"
button "Get Dialog" [
view/new/offset l 100x100
do-events
]
]
Hope this helps. (Gotta keep that great email client as user friendly as
possible!! :-)
