I am trying to migrate my BlitzPlus app to BlitzMax. I don't see any of the routines to handle system events in BlitzMax. In particular I have the following that works well in BlitzPlus, but cannot see how to do it in Max:

<codebox>
Repeat
event = WaitEvent()

Select event
Case EVENT_KeyDown
gKeyPressed = EventData()
Select gKeyPressed
Case KEY_Escape
GameShutDown()

Case KEY_F
If gFullScreen=MODE_FullScreen Then
gFullScreen = MODE_Windowed
Else
gFullScreen = MODE_FullScreen
EndIf
SetupDisplay()

End Select

Case EVENT_MouseDown
Select EventData()
Case 1
gLeftMouseDown = True

Case 2
gRightMouseDown = True
End Select

Case EVENT_MouseUp
Select EventData()
Case 1
gLeftMouseDown = False

Case 2
gRightMouseDown = False
End Select

Case EVENT_Close
GameShutDown()

End Select

Until event = EVENT_Timer
</codebox>

I guess I can do this by programming directly in Windows, but that won't help me when I try and get this running on the Mac.

Thanks,
