; Description
;
; this function reads the keyboard. The read can be wait or
; nowait. With wait I/O a key is always read and the function always
; returns with a true value. With no-wait if no key was pressed the
; function would return with a false value. If a key is pressed in
; no-wait mode, a wait read with guaranteed success is issued to
; make sure that the keyboard buffer is updated accordingly.
;
; When a key is read, a character code in character form , and a scan
; code in int form is returned. See the Technical Reference Manual
; pages 2-16 thru 2-17, and Appendix C for the codes. For the function
; keys and sometimes the numeric key pad, there may not be a character
; code returned, the value inserted is the null character, or 0
