You can add keys to the keyboard buffer by using Interrupt 16h, function 5h
The function is called with AH = 05h
			    CH = the scan code
			    CL = the character

If AL returns a 1 then the keyboard buffer is full.  
This function works only on IBM AT and compatibles and PS2s with
enhhanced keyboards.

Edition) by Terry Dettmann
