Gary,
Open the console.device in library mode. Use IDCMP_RAWKEY. You will get a
message for each key when it is pressed, and another one, when it is
released. Filter out the special keys you want to monitor.
If some alpha key is pressed, let the console device translate it for you
to ASCII with it's function RawKeyConvert(), which will take care of the
keyboard preferences the user has chosen.
Looks simple, but it's a hard piece of work to implement and test.
