I'd like to know how to take over the keyboard interrupt, I want
better access to the individual scancodes. I've read MKKBD, but it's
in ASM which is beyond me, and also the Allegro source which isn't
ideal because the relevant code is spread over a few files and it
isn't obvious what's what, and I'm still only learning C.

Is there a tutorial anywhere, explaining step by step what to do, in
fairly plain C? It doesn't have to be efficient or useful, just a
minimum to illustrate the point of how to install and deinstall an
interrupt and how to lock the right memory.
