Help!  I'm writing a TSR which must trap the keyboard in certain
situations.  My problem is that I wrote a hook into INT 8 to do
and INT 16 to get what's on the keyboard buffer, but DOS is
getting to it first!  I have a hook into INT 9 also, but the
scan codes haven't been converted to ASCII and put in the buffer
yet at that point.  What do I do?  Replies ASAP would be greatly
appreciated...
