    Rick,

    Could you please attach some code which shows this problem?

    I am using all keys on emulator and so far never has such bug.

    I've not been able to reproduce it either. (It was reported by Al Richey.)

    Using version 0.50, on both device (P800) and emulator, all
    menus I've seen have an extra card to the left of the
    defined ones. This card is empty, but pressing on its
    (blank) title crashes the OPL RTE. The left arrow will have
    the same effect, since it tries to select the left-hand card.
    This can be clearly seen on screenshots of UIQ OPL
    applications, such as 3lib's fairway.

    Nick,

    You are right. This is repetitive bug.

    This is a sample code which allow to reproduce a bug:

    proc menubug:
    mInit
    mCasc "More","Save",%s,"Export",%e,"Import",%i
    mCasc "Printing","Page setup",%u,"Print preview",%
    w,"Print",%p
    mCasc "Find","Find next",%t,"Replace",%r,"Go to",%g
    mCard "File","New",%n,"Open",%
    o,"More>",16,"Printing>",17,"Close",%e
    mCard "Edit","Cut",%x,"Copy",%c,"Paste",%
    v,"Find>",18
    menu
    endp

    Right now we have to click on the menu bar a bit left from
    the word 'File'.

    This will create a KERN-EXEC error number 3.

    To Rick: This might be related to the random window id%
    assigment as well.

    Ciao,
    Pawel
