[net.micro.amiga] Two Amiga Questions

d@alice.UucP (Daniel Rosenberg) (02/26/86)

Two questions:

1) What printers are compatible with the Amiga that have decent NLQ,
and work with Textcraft's (or any other word-processor's) italics,
boldface, underline, etc. reasonably?

2) How do I detect an ALTernate key sequence from MSBASIC? ABasiC can
do it, but I don't want to use ABasiC. I need to determine whether or
not a character A-Z is being pressed at the same time as ALT. The
IBM PC does it with extended codes, and INKEY$ returns with two characters.
There's *got*  to be a way to do it.... can anyone help?

Thanks in advance,
