What happens when it doesn't? Nothing, or a lockup? When it doesn't
work, does pressing it again immediately afterwards do the trick?

Again, what happens when it goes wrong? I just wrote a little test:

    #include <allegro.h>

    void main()
    {
        allegro_init();
        install_keyboard();

        for (;;) {
            if (key[KEY_CONTROL] && key[KEY_STOP])
                break;
        }
    }

and that works correctly, at least for me. Can you post some source that
demonstrates your problem?


I'll leave the Rhide problems for Robert to deal with :-)
