send "keyUp" / "rawKeyUp" ?

[hh]

If I understand correctly what you have in mind then you could
try the following.

Clicking the button will place one copy of numToCodepoint(M)
into both fld 1 and fld 2.
Type into the fields as usual, especially you can delete.
Typing outside the fields ("blind") will put one copy of
space&char into fld 1 and two copies of space&char into fld 2.

on mouseUp
 put 113 into M
 send "rawkeyDown M" to me
end mouseUp

In card's script:

on rawKeyDown N
  if the target contains "field "
  then pass rawKeyDown
  put numToCodepoint(N) into X
  send "keyUp X" to me
  put space & X after fld 1
end rawKeyDown

on keyUp K
  if the target contains "field "
  then pass keyUp
  put space & K after fld 2
end keyUp
