    g0> My first suggestion would be to update to the A47 release since I no   
    g0> longer have the A46 code to make a fix if we do determine a bug exists.    
    g0> It could be something fixed in A47 as well.   
      
   OK, this is in the pipeline for me.   
      
    g0> Assuming you're not trying to do more than what you're showing here you   
    g0> could simplify this with a single line like:   
    g0>    
    g0> Repeat Until OneKey('Q') = 'Q';   
    g0>    
    g0> Or   
    g0>    
    g0> Repeat Until UpCase(ReadKey) = 'Q';   
      
   This was a stripped down piece of code which contained multiple exit   
   criteria, hence the exit bool.   
      
    g0> In any case, if you are going to loop like you are there I would suggest   
    g0> putting some minor delay in there so as to not blow up your CPU usage.    
    g0> Maybe a delay(10) at the bottom of the repeat loop.   
      
   Agreed: the original code did indeed have a delay to cycle the thread.   
      
   Once i get A47 up, I'll test and let you know.
