Hello !

I wonder if anybody has got a code snippet for "peeking" into the
keyboard buffer, written in C (C-style only, no iostream...) ? I've done
some coding myself - but I'm not satisfied with it. I'd like a function,
say:

int kbpeek();

that returns the ASCII code of the top charcter in the kb buffer. The
more ANSI C, the better - but I suppose you'll have to go down to
__dos_int() calls, at the least...or is assembler the only solution...?

Thanks in advance - any contribution is welcome !

/Dan
