Matt,
 Basically, what I am trying to write is a credit timer for a coin op
internet terminal. I want the user to be able to use a browser(where the focus
will be) till the time is up, then it will disable the browser or cover the 
screen with the euphoria app or flash animation. I figured I would hardwire one
of
rarely used keys to the switch that accepts the quarter but disable it in the
keyboard- if I have to, I will run the switch to the parallel port.
The background color change is meant to get the user's attention that
their time is ending. I have no problem with the logic portion of the coding-
it is the syntax and capabities that get me.

This is the code I have thus far:

without warning
				include wxEuphoria.e
				include wxGraphics.e
				include wxText.e
				include wxTimer.e

atom sec
atom reset
sequence clock
atom key
atom quarter
sec=300
reset=0
clock = "5:00"
key=50
quarter=0

constant
MyFrame = create( wxFrame, {0, -1, "Timer", 500,100, 125, 50,wxSTAY_ON_TOP}),
MyPanel   = create( wxPanel, {MyFrame,-1,0,0,125,50}),
TextLabel = create(wxStaticText,{MyPanel,-1,"before the fact",10,10}),
OtherTextLabel = create(wxStaticText,{MyPanel,-1,"Please Insert a
Quarter",10,30}),
Timer = create(wxTimer,{MyFrame,-1}),
red = create( wxColour, {"Red"})

		
procedure onPaint_MyPanel( atom this, atom event, atom it, atom event_type )
		set_label(TextLabel,"after the fact")
		wx_puts( this, "     ")
end procedure
  
procedure drawclock()
      clock=sprint(floor(sec/60))&":"
      if sec-(floor(sec/60)*60)<10 then
      	clock=clock&"0"
      end if
      clock=clock&sprint(sec-(floor(sec/60)*60))
      
      if key=126 then
      sec=sec+150
      key=0	
      end if
      
      if sec=0 and reset=0 then
      reset=1
      	system("calc.exe",2)
      end if
	set_label(TextLabel,clock)
	if quarter>0 then
		quarter=quarter-1
	end if
	if quarter=0 then
		set_label(OtherTextLabel,"Please Insert a Quarter")
	end if
end procedure

procedure on_timer( atom this, atom event, atom it ,atom event_type )
      if sec>0 then
      	sec=sec-1
      end if
      drawclock()
      if sec<60 then
      	set_back_color( MyPanel, red )
      end if
end procedure
      
procedure key_event( atom this, atom event_type, atom id, atom event )
	key = get_key_code(event)
	if key=126 then
		set_label(OtherTextLabel,"Quarter Accepted!")
		quarter=3
		drawclock()
	end if
end procedure

set_event_handler( MyPanel, get_id(MyPanel), wxEVT_PAINT, routine_id(
"onPaint_MyPanel" ))
set_event_handler( MyFrame, -1, wxEVT_TIMER, routine_id("on_timer"))
set_event_handler( MyPanel, get_id(MyPanel), wxEVT_KEY_DOWN ,
routine_id("key_event"))

start_timer( Timer, 1000, 0 )    
wxMain( MyFrame )
