   Hi Oli,   
      
   On 2023-02-22 16:18:22, you wrote to me:

    Ol> does kind of work. Only problem is with Node and Area Manager: F-keys and   
    Ol> Del/Ins don't do anything. Does FConfig support navigation with the arrow   
    Ol> keys?   
      
   Yes. left and right arrow keys should work in the Node and Area manager.   
   Pressing enter is the same as 'F1 enter'. And typing letters does a search on   
   the typed letters for an Area name in the Area Manager.   
      
   I noticed the same behaviour when I run FConfigW32.exe in https://reactos.org/   
   But that is not so strange because it is based on the same code as wine.   
      
   It seems to have to do with how the getch() function is implemented in the   
   MingW compiler. The version in the old Borland Compiler seems to work in   
   reactos, or so some tests I did seems to indicate.   
      
   A few years back I made a little test program that showed this when compiled   
   with different compilers:   
   http://fmail.vlzn.nl/files/getchtest.zip   
      
   I added 2 versions compiled with the latest x64 version of mingw that came   
   with the latest code::blocks 20.03. Probably not usefull for testing with   
   wine. But on mijn Windows 10 x64 they all produce the same results for the   
   function keys...   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
