Right click in field for menu

[Bob Sneidar]

I didn't know mouse events were handled in an unlocked field! Nice to know. 

Curiously however, in that handler I substituted a put statement for the popup command using 

send "put " & quote & "this worked" & quote to me in 2 seconds

In two seconds I get "worked" not "this worked" in the message box.
