[etoys-notify] [JIRA] Commented: (SQ-1045) Exception when halo around Enhanced Text and typed <CMD-O>

    [ http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-1045?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=40453#action_40453 ] 

Scott Wallace commented on SQ-1045:
-----------------------------------

Interesting case.  The Enhanced Text object had "keyboard focus", i.e. there was a text selection in it, so anything typed, including command keys, was interpreted as input to the text-editor.

Cmd-o is one of command-keys that has a special meaning when issued within a text-editor; instead of being a general request to the "squeak desktop", it is interpreted as a "spawn" request by the text editor.  (There are *many* command-key combos that mean one thing within the context of text-editing and quite a different thing when issued "to the desktop").

I'll attach a little fileout that circumvents the bug.
