Handling Key Messages

[Mark Schonewille]

Perhaps it is slow because the fields are updating in real time. Try:

> on rawKeyUp theKey
>   if theKey is among the items of (65293,65289,65421) or \
>   theKey is an integer
>   then
       lock screen
>     updateCalculation
       unlock screen
>   end if
> end rawKeyUp


Best,

Mark
