Does anyone know any easy method for reading the arrow keys from the console
device??? I have opened a window and the console device and when I read
characters from the keyboard I don't get the characters for the arrow keys
that the amiga programming guides (including RKM) tell me I should! I get
"AA" for up arrow and "BB" for down arrow instead of <CSI> A~ for up arrow
and <CSI> B~ for down arrow. I can't figure out how to detect either of
those two or the "AA" and "BB" that I am getting now. I am using if
statements to check the char variable (ch) and when I output it to the window
using a console write character procedure, it gives me the aforementioned
"AA" or "BB"?? Anybody got a clue as to how to detect those arrow keys?? I
would appreciate any and all replys!!!! thanks.
Chris
