Hey Eric,

Iam making my custom java editor and want to trap keyboard events so that
i get the characters typed on the editor.

For that I implemented VerifykeyListener and on my source viewer used
prependVerifyKeyListener()but this doesn't worked out.

Please direct me how i can achieve this.am I in the right direction.

Thanks

Actually Iam working on something which get the characters typed on one
editor and display that contents on the other editor remotely ,of course
for the same file.
I got the typed character by trapping documentEvent but want to know how
to reflect those changes in the other Document so that on editor it
displays the changed document.
Thanks

The VerifyKeyListener should work (file a bug with steps to reproduce if
it doesn't) and you could also use an ITextListener on the viewer.
