Yep, it works well, whether its a single field or not. The only instance where it doesn't work correctly is if click to toggle is on (so that there are no hilitedlines) Focus is accepted, but no selection is made. Of course with click to toggle on, using arrow keys to select multiple lines would take custom coding anyway. Your code is similar to mine, the only addition I made was to select char 1 to 0 when no hilitedline is available.
