Is there a function available that will give me the ascii value of a key
press back ? If not, is there an easy way to convert the key press returned
from getkey() to it's ASCII value.

Basically I am trying to add the key pressed to a string without having to
press return.
ie
    key = getkey()
    strcat(kbdbuffer, ASCII(key)
