Hi,

   I need  to know how to do something very simple:  intercept interrupt 9
(keyboard ready), set a flag if a certain key was pressed otherwise call the
old interrupt nine handler.  I know how to do everything, EXCEPT reading the
key directly from the keyboard.  So I have: (BCC++ 3.0)

void interrupt (*oldint9)();
extern volatile int KeyBoard_Flag;
extern int Interrupt_Char;         /* probably a scan code needed */

void init_int9_handler(void)
{
     oldint9 = getvect(9);
     setvect(9, int9_handler);
}
  
void restore_int9_handler(void)
{
     setvect(9, oldint9);
}

void interrupt int9_handler(void)
{
     if (/* peek at key from keyboard */ == Interrupt_Char)
       KeyBoard_Flag = 1;
     else
       (*oldint9)();
}

	  
In the last routine, I need to know how to complete the if statement.

Any comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
