Monte, > Ok, great, I’m definitely reproducing it here Nice to know, I will leave it with you. Good luck! My 2 cents worth says that the nature of the 8.x series engine and the way the 8.x IDE is coded will make it a challenge. Since 8.1.6 Stable is already "laggy" on my high spec PC and not

Monte, Thank you for submitting Bug 20410. I open the Script Editor, move to about line 5000 and start typing, and keystrokes are dropped. This is on a freshly started LiveCode IDE, so I don't need to wait 10 minutes for it happen. LiveCode 8.1.6 is sluggish with the same 7000 lines of code,

Hi Scott This will obviously need to be fixed before we can go to RC. The only reason I can think for dropped keystrokes is if the windows engine somehow ignores them if it’s busy so the messages aren’t sent. I’ll need to see what Mark thinks on that. However, regardless of that we will need

The fact that the keyword both starts lines and is also embedded within lines makes me believe even more that the required processing work within LC, and not in gadgetry in the "read" command. A keyword that starts a sentence may not have a return in front of it. That would only occur if it
