I've noticed that I can't use the Ti-Keyboard in DCS or in DCS apps. Unless I'm missing something huge, I find this strange because I thought that the keyboard capture in DCS and its apps was pretty much the same as the stock OS, which would mean that there is a hook for the I/O port scan. The Ti Keyboard works fine in BASIC programs and in Mimas, but it doesn't work in things like DCS/its programs or even something like the Axe compiler.
My goal was to use Mimas as an on-board assembler and Document DE 7 along with Tokenizer as a BASIC editor and have my 83+SE in the cradle with the Ti Keyboard.
Is there a line or function I can add into the source code to allow for use of the Ti Keyboard?
"dot" added to follow this thread. I too would like to be able to use the keyboard in DCS7. Then the TI84+ could have both a keyboard and mouse.
The TI-keyboard is handled
only via _GetKey, not any other keyboard polling system. Any program that does non-blocking keyboard input would need to reimplement support for the TI-keyboard.

Thanks! This probably means I'd have to completely redo Kerm's work on document de, but there IS a chance....
