******************************************************************************
WHAT IS DMKEY101.LIB?
DMKEY101.LIB allows your Clipper program to detect whether KEYB.COM is
installed, and to switch the language of the keyboard between the U.S.
default and an alternate language.
If you have DOS 5.0 it also allows you to tell which keyboard
language was previously in use.
(What Microsoft calls the "foreign" language, I call the alternate
language, because in MOST places in the world the language you're using
as an alternate won't be a "foreign" language".)

FUNCTIONS
-------------------------------------------------------------------
KEYBINST()
returns a logical indicating whether KEYB.COM was installed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
KEYBLANG(<expL>)
if expL is true then the keyboard is switched to the
alternate language keyboard definition. (e.g. into
Canadian French).
returns a logical. If a version of DOS prior to 5.0 is
being used, then the return value is meaningless. If
DOS 5.0 is being used, then the return value indicates
the language previously in use.
