The returnvalue of the inkey-function doesnt work as described in the manual.
with
Code:

---

result = inkey(debug_str);
str_cat_num(debug_str, "%.0f", result);

---

I get 122740.
First I expected a type-convertion error, but the function always returns the same value.

Yes I confirm this...however it sets result automatically to the key code.

so ur code should work like this :-

inkey(debug_str);
str_cat_num(debug_str, "%.0f", result);

...and I'm not sure if %.0f is the correct format string. Give %d a try.

str_for_num, cat_num with %d - same problem

You're right. Inkey does not return a value in lite-C, so you need the workaround described by zazang.

This will be fixed.
