PC Magazine had a visible type-ahead keyboard buffer, some years back. It was called something on the order of VISIKEY, or VISI-something. It worded on my xt-clone, but I didn't like the screen display of keystrokes waiting to be fed into the 80 character buffer. I am pretty sure the buffer could be expanded, but not sure if the screen display could be turned off. Back then, I was new to pc's and I tried every program around, just to try it, not because I needed it or could use it. Turns out, I don't NEED a key- board buffer...
