Subject: Getting RAWKEYs in a requester
Message-ID: <"MS11(6044)+GLXLIB6(0)" 12470044365.9.143.46016 at WARLOK>
I am putting up a requester in a window, and would like to be able to
get RAWKEY events while the requester is up. "Use the NOISEYREQ flag"
you say. Well that's fine except it allows the user to play with the
menus and gadgets in the window, and I don't want to allow that.
Ignoring the events would work, but looks sorta tacky, and might be
confusing to the user.
So, is there any way to get RAWKEY events in requester *and* block input
(menus, etc.) to the window? If not, perhaps this could make it into
1.4? (jimm, you listening? I'll even send in an enhancement request!)
Any help/ideas would be appreciated.

Better accompany that with a short example that illustrates the
problem and defies the laws of source code ;^). And that
one should be mailed as a bug report (to cbmvax!bugs).
