Does anyone know how to get the Object
source of an Event, in Dig. ie:

Button b;

//later on

with(b = new Button("1")){
    onClick(handleEvent());
    }

// later on

handleEvent(Event event){
         //now how do I get the Object source and
         // string from the button from the parameter
     }

I have made a simple calculator with 18 buttons,
at the moment I have a function to handle each buttons
event ie: 18 Event functions.

Code attached.

I'm afraid that while that was always in the plan, I never got around to it.

However, it's easy to do what you want in this case.  Just have 
something like this:

    class AppendFunction
    {
        char [] text; /**< Text to append. */

        this (char [] text)
        {
            this.text = text;
        }

        void event (Event event)
        {
            ed.text (append (ed.text (), text));
        }
    }

    void doView ()
    {
       int c, r = 1;

       void createNumericButton (char [] text)
       {
          with (new Button (this))
          {
             caption (" &" ~ text ~ " ");
             grid (c ++, r, 1, 1);
             sticky ("<>^v");
             bordered (true);
             onClick.add (&(new AppendFunction (text)).event);
          }
       }

       void nextRow ()
       {
          c = 0, r ++;
       }

       createNumericButton ("1");
       createNumericButton ("2");
       createNumericButton ("3");
       nextRow ();
       createNumericButton ("5");
       createNumericButton ("6");
       createNumericButton ("7");
       nextRow ();
       createNumericButton ("8");
       createNumericButton ("9");
       createNumericButton ("0");
       nextRow ();
       ...
    }

Thanks Burton!

That works great, it will also be a great help in
the future.
