I've been trying to stick to toolbox access, but this might be far
easier than using the rather complicated event manager. I appreciate the
suggestion.

I'm wondering, since I'm operating in 16-bit mode, I imagine my keyboard
routines would have to save the data bank register, then set it to 0,
read the keyboard, and then return the data bank to it's previous state.
Am I missing anything?
