Bug: No ASCII chart from search prompts

[Carlo Hogeveen]

All TSE search prompts, like Find, Replace, and Find and Do, all get a "Ctrl A-Ascii Chart" message in the footer at the bottom of the prompt.

However, pressing <Ctrl A> in the prompt does nothing.

I did test with a default TSE GUI installation with the CuaMark macro purged.

Aside, how I noticed:
The user-specific form version of TSE's Replace command that I emailed yesterday automagically got the same footer, without me programming it.
A little testing suggested that a prompt's window automagically gets a footer based on a Read statement's history type.

Hi Carlo,

In a fresh install, with no macros loaded, I cannot reproduce this. I
press <Ctrl F> for find, then <Ctrl A>, and the ASCII chart comes up
as expected.

Weird, I did and just redid the same and nothing happens.
Not for GUI TSE, Console TSE and Linux TSE.
The Find prompt's other two footer keys do work.
Elsewhere in TSE <Ctrl A> keeps working, e.g. to MarkAll() and in ShowKey, so an external program blocking the key is unlikely.
Starting the AsciiChart from TSE's menu and with Macro Execute "ascii" works.
Baffled,
Carlo

Operating system: Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS (native boot, not a VM)

The SemWare Editor (Linux) 4.50.13

ui: tse.ui

I just started the editor using an available text file, used ctrl-F to bring up the search dialog, then used ctrl-A to bring up 

the ASCII chart.

Thank you.
Sammy found out that it is a bug in the default win.ui that does not occur in the default tse.ui, and others.
