   Well, you're headed in the right direction...

   I will post some C code in the next day or so to take care
   of multiple keypresses with no typomatic stupid repeat. However,
   this code is in Microsoft C with inline assembler, so if you 
   are using something else, it might take some effort... I also
   have the code in Pascal that someone posted a while back.

   To take care of flicker... Use the XLIB04 package.  Set up two
   virtual screens.  Then, you can draw on one while viewing the
   other.  Then, after you're done drawing on the hidden page,
   make the hidden page visable, and then wait for verticle retrace
   and then begin drawing on the now-hidden previous page that was shown.
   Keep looping...  Another good thing to do is to use 3 pages... one
   for the background and 2 for page flipping.  Then, whenever you need
   to erase a "sprite" you can just use a fast display memory to display
   memory copy from the background page on top of the sprite you need
   to erase, and wala, the background is restored!  All the routines
   that you need to do this are in the XLIB04 library.  For three pages,
   you'll need to use 320x200 mode. 320x240 only gives ~2.4 pages or 
   something like that.

   Good luck.
