Re: Duplicate keystrokes


Vince,

Yes, there are occasionally duplicated keystrokes.  Unfortunately, as my
February email describes (which I thank you for finding on your own and putting
a link in your email), the problem is not trivial to solve.  We will only gain
new information and insight into this problem by spending about 20 hours
carefully diagnosing the problem.  I have already done that once and I hit a
dead-end and was unable to find the source of the duplicated keystrokes.  I am
nut sure that I will ever find the source of the duplicated keystrokes on my
own, so it is probably better for someone else to give it a try now.

Good luck if you go for it,

Harold
