Great!! Can you send me that fixed eiffel.hex?

Yes, no problems like this with 1.16.3. It happens very rare that CTRL or ALT get stucked, but a
second hit on this key makes it work again.

It would be really great if we could find the real problem...unfortunetly i don't know very
much about coding. My professions are electronics, soldering, translating+testing Atari softs.

Lars
