Re: A85: Re: Re: Re: Usgard improvements




If you new the location of the bytes used the cursor movements, this
shouldn't be a problem. Hoever the input handler calls the key handler,
which calls get key. Get key reads keys from a buffer which is updated by
the interrupt routine. So instead of doing what you are suggesting, just let
the TSR call the normal int function, and then update the GET_KEY buffer
when the TSR is over. This would mean that the external keyboard would work
anywhere.
