system command - problem resolved

[John Esak]

If you're still having trouble with the cursor not being inthe right place
or something. Try adding a pushkey to redraw the screen after the function
of your @key/system command is finished...

@keyT   if:
      then: le=blah;pa=blaxxxx; system le < pa;  pushkey "[DRAW]";  end

It may help, though I'm not clear on what is actually going on, but judging
by what you said... this might help... also try putting a sleep "2000" in
between the system command and the pushkey draw so that you will see a small
pause and then the screen redrawing. If you see the scre	en redrawing and
your cursor is still messed up... something else is going on.
