[A86] Re: monqueue
monqueue is the state monitor key buffer. Whenever _SendKPress is
called, each byte is removed from the monqueue and sent through cxMain,
just as if it were a key press. The monqueue is used by the rom for menu
items that paste in a string.
_popQueue ($4090) reads one byte from the monqueue to c. The carry flag
is set on success.
_pushQueue ($4094) places a byte (from a) on the monqueue.
It looks like there's no other place that directly references the
monqueue (except one place where it checks if it's empty or not), so you
can put a breakpoint on _pushQueue or _popQueue. (with their page 0
location, of course)
