Hello,
I see that
--/*
Rems everything after it.
How do you unrem further down below it?
TIA

I assume by "remming" you "comment out".
Anyhow, no it doesn't. What makes you think that it does?
For example...
------------- --/* ? 3 ? 2 -------------
This displays
2on the screen. If it had commented everything after the firstline then I wouldn't see any output.
However this ... comments mutliple lines out ...
------------- -- /* ? 3 ? 2 */ -------------
To summarize:
Single line comments start with "--" and go to the end of the line. Multi-line comments start with "/*" and go until the next "*/", and they are not nestable.

Well you are right with you test.
--/* ?2 --in Edita this is red
does print 2
I never tried that because in Edita if you do that every line after turns red.
Maybe there's a bug in Edita. We'll never know because Pete dropped out or dead or something.
So I assumed it all was remmed out. I didn't try any other editors.
Rem is short for remark a hold over from basic. There's another word for it I've seen somewhere.
But I forgot it. It means blocked out; ignored buy your code, it may or may not contain a comment.
This all started with your instructions to fix fDoChar.
When I found fDoChar in my older version of win32lib it was all remmed out in that manner.
Maybe it wasn't. I was going check but it seems I threw that old win32lib.ew out.
As I said changing to the newer version fixed my problem.
I do want to put your fix in but haven't do so yet.
The way I'm getting around problem is
doEvents(0) setFocus(EditText5)
Where according to what I read on this forum it should be
setFocus(EditText5) returnValue(-1)
I'm going to put in your fix then change my code. I'm in no rush on this because it is working now.

Not dead just very very quiet. (Hi all!) It is a deliberate feature. Close with */ The second line of euphoria.syn can be edited to remove this.
