Sorry, I have an annoying habit of not completely explaining my logic
sometimes. :) I was thinking about a discussion on the 89 list about reading
the keyboard to see if a button is being held down or if it's just been
'tapped'. While reading that, I was thinking about how this should be used in
Super Mario 86, because that is probably the most common complaints about an
otherwise wonderful game! :)

P.S. I apologize for posting so much today... especially the pointless stuff.
I'll try and calm down and/or keep to relevant subject matter.
