Total Lines Problem - Not Adding Up :-(

Greetings,
I'm not sure if I'm overlooking something or if it's just the way Rev
works, but when I start a new line in a multi-line field from the last
line in the field, the new line is not being counted using;
put the number of lines of field "fEditor" into varTotalLines
(or maybe it is, but the way I'm handling the messages isn't correct),
unless I type another character or space.
This only seems to happen though if you are on the last line of the
field and hit the enter key. If you are on another line before the last
line and hit the enter key, no problem. Or, if you are on the line that
is not being counted and hit the backspace key, a line from the count is
removed, but the line you are on is still not being counted.
I've uploaded a small test file if anyone is interested in checking this
out to see if I'm doing something wrong.

Messages used are in the "Field" script and the code for the number of
lines is in the "Stack" script.
If this little anomaly can be made to go away, great, if not, I guess I
can live with it.
Thanks,
-Garrett
