[A83] Re: _getKey


No it doesn't wait, so you have to make a loop.

For example:

	Xor a
KeyLoop:
	B_CALL GetCSC
	Or a
	Jr z,KeyLoop	;Note: I HATE MICROSOFT WORD AND ITS FRIGGIN
AUTO-				CORRECTING B.S.

At the end of this loop, the accumulator contains the value for the
keypress. I believe all of them begin with 'sk'. For example, "skenter",
"skgraph", "sktrace". This routine does not allow you to access system
menus.

What's the output of _getcsc? Like _getkey? And does it
wait, or ...
