Hey 
i tried your example HelloInput - but it doesn’t worked. The box will not move by pressing the keys k and l or pause when pressing p
I also copy the text from your site, but with the same result.
Do you know what wents wrong ?!
Post the entire code your using. This could be because you are running one of the earlier Hello World examples by accident in main (), or running the wrong file (press shift + f6 on the file, and make sure main () is instantiating the correct class).
Otherwise maybe you press p first? which doesn’t really pause, just prevents j, k and space from doing anything.

Also, have you tried adding printlns to see what’s happening or done any other basic debugging of the problem?

Thanks for the tip - with shift + F6 it works…
Here is the entire code:

yep looks fine. Its because your project is configured to a different main. Pressing F6 will use your project’s configured main, while shift + f6, executes the current file’s main.
Thanks for the tip
F6 didnt work, but under Projectproperties -> Run -> select Main Class you can select the right class - this works for me -thank you so much!
(And sorry for the double post)
