["It's happening again"]

Well, we finally got 4.1 installed across all of our machines, and the ALT key
stuff in our code broke.

I can't seem to be able to get an ALT key event anymore thru a canvas window.
ALT came thru as a 0x06 in a keyboard event, but now nothing happens.

In the words of David Letterman "boy are we screwed". Well, not really, but
it makes things really cumbersome.

Any suggestions besides returning to 4.0?

Any opinions are my own since nobody else would ever want them.
