Re: Contiguous memory and the *INKx indicators

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Couldn't you base them seperately, to avoid potential problems with
non-contiguous memory?

Example:

     D p_ExitKey       S               *
     D ExitKey         S              1N
     D p_CancelKey     S               *
     D CancelKey       S              1N

     c                   eval      p_ExitKey = %addr(*inkc)
     c                   eval      p_CancelKey = %addr(*inkl)

Another possibility is to ignore the indicators being returned by the
display file altogether, and instead check the AID byte to see what key
was pressed.  Chris Bipes posted a good example of this here:

And a useful follow-up to Chris' approach was posted by David Morris,
