Commentary for b.p.tp:
I originally posted in clpb that I was trying to provide a ReWrite of
CRT that was independent of Borland/Inprise code and asked for comments
about Readkey in that I wondered if I should provide support for
extended keyboards. The unit would be released as a TPU file with any
source that is independant of Inprise. May I recommend that interested
parties read full thread in clpb before responding.

Indeed. With the benefit of hindsight, perhaps I should have x-posted
this thread in the first place. I have x-posted this reply into b.p.tp
with a commentary condensing the info and suggesting the whole thread is
read before response.
