keydef PickFileX
           EndProcess(0)
           EndProcess(1)
           EndProcess(10)

I'm using TSE 2.50d
In this example f3 is like ESC, f4 and f5 like ENTER.
 
To get 1 or 10 I'm trying  to return, I think I've to use your
equivalent code.

Veeery sorry if it seems like a complaint, it was just frustration.
I was looking the GetHelp Macro (bravo! to Chris Antos) and in the hlp file 
I kept finding "Undocumented" stuff (for example in Hook and DisplayMode)
so I felt frustrated.
_AFTER_GET_KEY_ and _BEFORE_GET_KEY_ are really undocumented Hook events?
My SC.EXE gives "unknown keyword", maybe they're for 2.6 only?
Thank you.
Ciao. Jackson
