Bug i GETKEY (8151)

[cyrille de brébisson]

Hello,

The root cause is the limited event stack of the Prime.
Any event goes in the queue, Key presses, but also mouse messages.
If you type on the screen 3 times, you have at least 9 messages in the queue: 3 times Down, Up and Click.
Since nothing is consuming these messages, they stay there.
Since the queue is 8 deep, any other messages are ignored (so, in fact the last click is not there).
As a result, your key press never makes it into the queue and never triggers GetKey.

The WAIT(-1) command does allow to get stuff from, and out of, the queue, but that is the only way at this point in time.
