Hi there netlanders,
  I have a couple questions I hope someone can answer:

1) Can I output graphics to a requester using the graphics primitives ?
I tried it with a requester in a window on the workbench screen, using
Requester->ReqLayer->rp for a rastport and Text() worked fine, when I tried
again, this time on another screen I got a "software faliure - task held"
requester.

2) What controls which keys repeat and which don't ?
Regularly the Return key doesnt repeat but when I opened my own screen,
and a window on it, using the IDCMP RAWKEY mode to fetch my characters I
suddenly noticed that Return also repeats, I am not using any keymap
or playing around with the input device in any way. I do a console
device attached to the window but only use it to output.
