Typing into the field produces completely normal behaviour: arrowkeys, the
deletekey and backspace key are passed, and everything else is handled by
the line "put k into selection". But when you click out of the field, NO
closeField message is sent.
The arrow keys, delete key, and backspace key are non-printable characters. They will never be sent via keyDown anyway, they trigger their own messages instead. You could likely trap them with rawKeyDown, but it might be better to just ignore them -- that is what this code will do anyway.
If the code says to "put k into selection", why not just "pass keyDown"? Then there is no reason for this handler to begin with? I will assume that this is just an example to demonstrate a problem you are having elsewhere with your code, could you be more specific about what you hope to accomplish by trapping the keys here?
If you really want to do this, then an example of a rewrite might be:
on openField put empty set the modified of me to false end openField
on keyDown k put k into selection set the modified of me to true end keyDown
on closeField put "Field changed." end closeField
on exitField if the modified of me then put "Field changed." end exitField
