[!RebGUI] A lightweight alternative to VID

i wrote a little csveditor and this is the last thing i need to release 
it as a useful app

Maybe, but did not much with rebgui. What was the question?

i would like to bind an action to the pgup/pgdn key when im in field 
widgets preserving all the predefined keybindings of course
the action would be selecting the next row in a table widget. i cant 
solve that either but its more possible that i can solve it by myself 
than figuring out how do the keybindings work in rebgui

Can you override the /engage in rebgui? like with feel in vid?
OneTom

maybe not exactly like in vid, but it already has a value
a very complex function
Volker

Yes, but thee is a trick.

and im curious about that wether it contains any extension capabilities 
or not or im just too blind to recognize it

My index-builder is a bit unsmart..
and i got the url from desktop. when i go up, it adds %../ , when 
i go back, the folder, up again an so on.

i programmed turbovision and delphi earlier, so its the usual "overriding 
a virtual method trick"
Volker
30-Oct-2005
[2221x2]
Yes.
Only that you have to copy the overridden method in rebol.

okay, i will do it then, but i will refer to you as the parent of 
the idea doing this like that ;)

and to avoid clashing (subclassing some levels deep, at every level 
old-engage: :engage) i prefix with area^
Me? That file must have been wanderd in accidentally.. *whistle*

small update, fucusses face now. you can type, but mouse-clicking 
gives alert. to show it really uses the original engage.
Good, i have a little fix to areas down-arrow.

: ) btw, why do u write 'word = obj/func  instead of obj/func = 'word 
?
just to make sure that the operator wont get a wrong operand?
Volker

often usefull to save parens. usually the function has arguments. 
like this
 'word = pick here 3
so i put the more probable single-token-value left.
but also a c-convention, where you have this 
 if (a = 4 ) //bang..
instead
  if (4 = a)  //compiler reclaims.

I had to remove your patches to the editor as it caused display problems 
when changing the text in an area.
OneTom
30-Oct-2005

whos patches?
Graham

When I did a show-text areawidget, it would end up displaying not 
at the top, but near the bottom in some cases.
Had to switch to using MS Word to edit text using Benjamin's com 
library.
I think the problem is something to do with the slider not being 
initialised correctly.
