You'll need a canvas/panel to capture EVENT_KEYDOWN

' createwindow.bmx

Strict 

Local window:TGadget

window=CreateWindow("My Window",40,40,320,240)
Global panel:TGadget = CreatePanel(0,0,320,240,window,PANEL_ACTIVE)
ActivateGadget pan

While True
	WaitEvent 
	Print CurrentEvent.ToString()
	Select EventID()
		Case EVENT_WINDOWCLOSE
			End
		Case EVENT_KEYDOWN
			Select EventData()
				Case KEY_ESCAPE
					End
			End Select
	End Select
