With Maint5 you can detect "raw" keyboard events, meaning "up"s and  
"down"s of (to the best of my knowledge) all keys on the keyboard.   
Pick up Maint5 and look at the eventque.h file and if that's not  
enough explanation, send me e-mail and I'll see if I can cook up a  
better explanation.

Executor (our Mac emulator) uses this feature.  Under 1.10 we needed  
a bunch of custom mods to go32 to do what we wanted, but now with  
1.11, the only custom mod we needed was this raw keyboard stuff, and  
now that it's included in Maint5, we'll be able to use a stock go32.

[If you'd like to see Executor, you can pick up exctr12?.zip from the  
emulator directory of the SimTel archives.  Before the renaming, it  
was available as  
oak.oakland.edu:pub/msdos/emulator/exctr12[abc].zip.]
