Bonjour Tiemo,
You have two ways:
1. You script by yourself arrowKey handler, setting the hilitedLine
according to your needs and the param sent with arrowkey message:
left, right, up or down:
on arrowKey pKey
switch pKey
case "up"
<statements>
break
etc.
end arrowKey
2. You use a 'send in time' form:
on arrowKey
send "TellMeTheLine" to me in 50 milliseconds
pass arrowKey
end arrowKey
-------------------------------------------------------
on TellMeTheLine
put the selectedtext of me
end TellMeTheLine
Hope this helps ;-)
