>Hello. I'm looking to write a keyboard hook of some sorts that needs to be able to access the code that I'm writing(read-only), and pump the keyboard buffer based on what it finds(or possibly edit code very much near the cursor). Is there any way to do this? It needs to work for modifying PRGs, and object methods. It must access the code currently being written, which is not neccessarly the code saved to the file being edited.

If there is a way to accomplish this without writing my own keyboard hook, I'd love to hear about it.

There are some functions in the FoxTools.FLL you can call that can give you access to the code. Here's some sample code that will return all of the code in the currently open window:

FUNCTION GetFullCode()

LOCAL lcProgram, ;
      lnHwd, ;
      laEnv, ;
      lnPos

SET LIBRARY TO SYS(2004) + "FOXTOOLS.FLL"
lnHwd = _WONTOP()
DIMENSION laEnv[25]

_edGetEnv(lnHwd, @laEnv)

lcProgram = ""
lnPos = 0

DO WHILE lnPos <= laEnv[2]
   lcProgram = lcProgram + _EDGETCHAR(lnHwd, lnPos)
   lnPos = lnPos + 1 
ENDDO

RETURN lcProgram

If you do a search for the various underscored-named functions, you should be able to find more examples.
