Yikes! I assigned a number of functions to certain key combinations under Linux, but had no Windows system to work with. I should have posted it as a LINUX program. My apologies - I'll repost the program designated as a Linux file, but I'll try to make it more Windows compatible. Even under Linux the code values can vary from one terminal to another.

After I assigned some functions to key combinations, I discovered easier, more portable ways to implement some of the functions. For the multi-line comment this should work,even under windows.

-- All you have to do is enter "/* " and the auto-complete  
-- routine will write out: 
/* 

#  -- position of cursor 
*/ 
 
-- or 
-- ESCAPE /   
/* 

#  -- position of cursor ( same as entering "/* ") 
*/ 
 
/* ESCAPE `   -- backtick, writes: 

 
` 

# 
` 

 
*/ 
                                                                                                                                          
-- So, I can delete, or comment out most of the control key assignments 
-- which probably won't work under windows and use the ESCAPE + hotkey combinations 
-- which are assigned in the routine get_escape(boolean help) 
 
-- The F11 uncomment key would probable be nice to keep, if you can use it  
-- with the value that the Windows console assigns to it: 
 

I'll try to clean the code up a bit tonight and repost. Thanks for your comments.
