My apologies if these seemingly simple questions have already been
addressed here on the net.
1) How do you determine if a function key has been hit on the 520?
I'm interested in doing this through C and I have both the DRI
and the Lattice Compilers available. I've tried most everything
I can think of following up on the hints that the Hitchhiker's
Guide offers about similiarities between the 520's function keys
and the IBM PC's but no luck.
2) Is there a way of accessing the system clock to do timing other
than using the 2 second resolution accesses that are documented.
Again through C.
My thanks in advance for any help.
