If you've tried using KILLER.PRG (which I posted a while ago) you've
probably noticed that pressing any key after setting caps-lock on, or
using the mouse buttons, caused an unintentional kill.  Here is a corrected
version.  In this version the shift status has to be exactly $0F, rather
than greater or equal to $0F, as I mistakenly did before.

Reminder: after running this program ONCE, holding down
Control, Alternate and BOTH Shift keys and pressing any
other key will stop the program running at the time, as long
as it is in user mode.  Since programs call OS routines
which execute in supervisor mode, you may have repeat
pressing the last key several times.
Also, now, caps lock MUST be off for it to work.
