1600 - INT 16 - KEYBOARD - GET KEYSTROKE

INT 16 - KEYBOARD - GET KEYSTROKE
	AH = 00h
Return: AH = BIOS scan code
	AL = ASCII character
Notes:	on extended keyboards, this function discards any extended keystrokes,
	  returning only when a non-extended keystroke is available
	the BIOS scan code is usually, but not always, the same as the hardware
	  scan code processed by INT 09.  It is the same for ASCII keystrokes
	  and most unshifted special keys (F-keys, arrow keys, etc.), but
	  differs for shifted special keys
	some (older) clone BIOSes do not discard extended keystrokes and manage
	  function AH=00h and AH=10h the same
	the K3PLUS v6.00+ INT 16 BIOS replacement doesn't discard extended
	  keystrokes (same as with functions 10h and 20h), but will always
	  translate prefix E0h to 00h. This allows old programs to use extended
	  keystrokes and should not cause compatibility problems
SeeAlso: AH=01h,AH=05h,AH=10h,AH=20h,AX=AF4Dh"K3PLUS",INT 18/AH=00h

1601 - INT 16 - KEYBOARD - CHECK FOR KEYSTROKE

INT 16 - KEYBOARD - CHECK FOR KEYSTROKE
	AH = 01h
Return: ZF set if no keystroke available
	ZF clear if keystroke available
	    AH = BIOS scan code
	    AL = ASCII character
Note:	if a keystroke is present, it is not removed from the keyboard buffer;
	  however, any extended keystrokes which are not compatible with 83/84-
	  key keyboards are removed by IBM and most fully-compatible BIOSes in
	  the process of checking whether a non-extended keystroke is available
	some (older) clone BIOSes do not discard extended keystrokes and manage
	  function AH=00h and AH=10h the same
	the K3PLUS v6.00+ INT 16 BIOS replacement doesn't discard extended
	  keystrokes (same as with functions 10h and 20h), but will always
	  translate prefix E0h to 00h. This allows old programs to use extended
	  keystrokes and should not cause compatibility problems

Return: AH destroyed by many BIOSes
Note:	Applications which try to set a new loudness, but are unsure of the
	  results of other INT 16/AH=04h implementations, should set the new
	  loudness first, and then call this function again with AL=01h or
	  AL=00h

1610 - INT 16 - KEYBOARD - GET ENHANCED KEYSTROKE (enhanced kbd support only)

INT 16 - KEYBOARD - GET ENHANCED KEYSTROKE (enhanced kbd support only)
	AH = 10h
Return: AH = BIOS scan code
	AL = ASCII character
Notes:	if no keystroke is available, this function waits until one is placed
	  in the keyboard buffer
	the BIOS scan code is usually, but not always, the same as the hardware
	  scan code processed by INT 09.  It is the same for ASCII keystrokes
	  and most unshifted special keys (F-keys, arrow keys, etc.), but
	  differs for shifted special keys.
	unlike AH=00h, this function does not discard extended keystrokes
	INT 16/AH=09h can be used to determine whether this function is
	  supported, but only on later model PS/2s

	INT 16/AH=09h can be used to determine whether this function is
	  supported, but only on later model PS/2s
	many BIOSes (including at least some versions of Phoenix and AMI) will
	  destroy AH on return from functions higher than AH=12h, returning
	  12h less than was in AH on entry (due to a chain of DEC/JZ
