Console Problem - Doesn't want to open for me

[webbear1000]

Just stumbled across Novashell this morning and I've been working through the tutorials. Have to say, I'm very impressed so far.

I'm having one little problem though. I can't seem to open the console with the tilde key.

Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Are you on windows mac or linux? What version?

[webbear1000]

Windows version and using 0.22.

I know it's not a keyboard problem. I use the tilde key all the time in other apps.

Hmm, weird.

Do you have a standard full keyboard or are you on a laptop?

The reason I ask is it's actually the backtick that brings it down, it just happens to also share itself with the tidle key on most keyboards.

A way to force it to come down would be hit F1 to bring up the editor bar, then do Display->Dump Engine Statistics. Of course, you may not be able to get rid of it then...

Now I'm confused!!

I'm using a normal US-English QWERTY keyboard. I'm assuming backtick is the key undeneath escape and above TAB. Either way, neither of them work.

It's a weird problem. If I force an error in script then the console appears and is I press tilde or backtick a character appears.
