[net.lang.mod2] What is wrong with this program???

What is wrong with this program???

I want to write some sort of interrupt handler in TDI Modula-2 for the
Atari ST series, using the IOTransfer procedure.
Following is a small Modula-2 test program which has the same task as
the Megamax C interrupt test program, which have been posted two or three 
weeks ago in net.micro.atari16. I used the TDI Version 2.10a Modula-2 compiler.
The documentation is very poor at this point, so if anybody knows a
hint how to get this program running, please mail to

uh@unido

Many thanks in advance.

This program bombs: 3 mushrooms (aah bombs).
But first if you hack something on the keyboard (i.e. move the mouse) when
the program is ended (N is 0).

Some words about my configuration:
   260ST upgraded to 1MB,
   SF 354,
   SM124,
   TOS in ROM.
   
Please, please help!!!
