function keys in squeak

Hi,

it seems that squeak is ignoring function key events (F1 - F12). I tried

Sensor kbdTest

but nothing happens when I press a function key. Am I missing something?

You are not missing anything. As far as I know, function keys have never
been mapped in Squaek.

Sensor is a global pointing to the current input sensor which happens to
be an EventSensor nowadays.

It shouldn't lock up your image. Did you try pressing x?
