[net.micro.pc] HELP NEEDED for patching IBM keyboar

	INT10_END is on page A-26, line 1882 of my Tech Ref
	(it has a "2.02" sticker on the spine) - right in the 
	middle of the INT 16H keyboard stuff. Makes sense, right?
	Anyway, it's not much code:

		INT10_END:
			POP	BX
			POP	DS
			IRET

	About the numeric 5 key - I'm not sure why that key is
	ignored either. The key table for the base case keypad
	(K15) has three special entries - the plus, minus and 5.
	Plus and minus are handled in the bios, but 5 isn't.
	It looks like someone either added a -1 to the keytable
	and forgot to handle it, or they figured that it was base
	case, and the 5 key didn't have any base legend, so it
	didn't have any function! I don't know of any nice way
	to fix the problem, short of writing your own keyboard int
	routine.
