It will likely be something like 

 KeyIs = get_key_code (event)
 if keyIs = ? then...

You'll need to reassign the ? to the key ID of the ESC or whatever key you 
might want.(Should be 27 for the ESC if not, see the Documentation) If you 
need more help, try looking into the catch_keys.exw demofrom the wxEuphoria 
demo's since that's where I got that snippet from.
