Hi Andrus

You use an outdated and depricated command, it might be deleted in the next version.

#1 Read the docu, it points to @ GET. Anyway, this is outdated as well.

Create a class - for example from custom
Create a Method. Lets say GetKeyFromScreen
This needs parameter like:

LPARAMETERS tnKeyCode, tnShiftAltCtrl

?tnKeyCode,tnShiftAltCtrl

Assuming you have no form etc on your screen, just the screen itself.

Instantiate your class to _SCREEN.oCustom
Bind _Screen Keypress event to your method

BINDEVENT(_SCREEN,'KeyPress',_SCREEN.oCustom,'GetKeyFromScreen')

As you can see, GetKeyFromScreen is processing your input in the background. Now you can write your own code gathering the input, writing to screen with any font property and write to some var.

Update: This example is as numb as possible. There is no need to create to _screen etc, this is just an example. If run from command window, note to click into screen, else the input will go elsewhere.

Logically you can create an idiot form, set to fullscreen, activate and use it's KeyPress event, writing to the form. There are many ways to solve it like this.
