@javavi,

Twofingers found the same. In the "non-VGA" version of his filemanagers he used the BACKSPACE key to toggle (as ALT does in the VGA version).
Later on he changed the behaviour to use the DELETE key to toggle the active pane between A:/ and B:/
(as there is only A and B, a toggle avoids the use of function keys al together).

You could try his "KLINGON" version (the last version) to see if you like the behaviour before you implement it. But it is only console.

In general: MMBasic has problems to detect function keys in combination with SHIFT/ALT/CONTROL via console.
