CommandKeyDown in a library script?

[Graham Samuel]

Craig - sorry, forgot to thank you for this. Yes, there was another handler further up the library which I didn't notice. The IDE did not complain that I had two identically-named handlers in the same script, which seems odd to me. I wonder if it's a bug? I think the IDE used to complain about this, didn't it? It certainly doesn't now (just to be sure, I just added an "openStack" handler to a stack script which already has one, and it compiled without errors). I'm using LC 6.6.2.

Thanks again

Graham
