_I_ don't use port 1 because my programs tend to use over half the keys
- and they all do something different.  Using port 1 would be a
nightmare, but I don't use GET_KEY either, because it drains batteries,
uses TI's silly call routine at $28CB (I _think_ that's where it is...),
and I seem to recall that is does something to OP2 that I'm not
interested in.  Instead, I wrote a little routine that gets a byte halts
until a key is pressed (I think...) and gets the scancode from $C000.
