EGAINT AND KEYBOARD ENHANCERS
Egaint relies on BIOS for reading the keyboard, so, no, this doesn't
(well, it shouldn't) mean that egaint is non-compatible with TSR
keyboard enhancers.
Rather, this means egaint plays better with them.
If you have a keyboard enhancer which adjusts the typematic rate, you
will probably find that playing egaint with it is a tad bit easier than
playing without it. I'm not quite sure how to explain this, so that's
all I'm going to say: you'll just have to try it out yourself.
I personally use this archaic program (copyrighted 1985) by Skip
Gilbrech called "kbfix2"; though it's old, it quite versatile: not only
does it adjust the typematic rate of my keyboard, but it also provides
an extended keyboard buffer (among other things). Unfortunately, I got
years and several computers ago without any sort of documentation
whatsoever, so I don't know if it is shareware or if the author still
supports it (and if there is a newer version out).
