Hi again,

In my previous solution I proposed this loop :

*repeat* until charToNum("s") is in the keysDown

However, the use of "is in" to test the presence of a number in a list is
risky. Because for example, "122" may be in "1222,256"

So to prevent bugs prefers this handler to my previous solution :

 *on* mouseUp

   *put* 0 into fld "Msg"

   *repeat* until charToNum("s") is among the items of the keysDown

      *-- the charToNum function is necessary to compare the key with the
content returned by the keysDown function. The keysDown function returns a
list of keys in ascii form separated by commas.*

      *add* 1 to fld "Msg"

      *wait* 30 ticks

   *end* *repeat*

*end* mouseUp
