	I'm working on a simple game on the Amiga in my spare time, and need
to know how to check whether certain keys are down or up.

	I could do this one of two ways:  Either receive one and only one
KEYDOWN message, and one KEYUP message, or Not accept messages at all, but
check the key directly each time within a loop.

	I would prefer the former method, but when I use:
while (message = GetMsg(..)) { ... }
	and hold down a key, the timing within the WaitTOF() loop gets all
messed up, and nothing appears on the screen until I let go of the key.
So how to I check the status of a few keys, without messing up my animation
loop?

	Thanks for your help.  Please reply via e-mail, since this is
probably not terribly useful for everybody else.
