... and rename it to KEY?. Then, add KEY from KEY? for its blocking
version.
I need this for an upcoming Remote Shell feature. If a Collapse OS
system remotely controls another shell, it needs to be able to poll
both the remote system and the local keyboard at the same time. A
blocking KEY is incompatible with this.
In some places, the polling mechanism doesn't make sense, so this
new KEY? always returns a character. In some places, I just haven't
implemented the mechanism yet, so I kept the old blocking code and
added a "always 1" flag as a temporary shim.
I have probably broken something, but in emulators, Collapse OS runs
fine. It's an important reminder of what will be lost with the new
"dogfooding" approach (see recent mailing list message): without
emulators, it's much harder to to sweeping changes like this without
breaking stuff.
It's fine, I don't expect many more of these core changes to the
system. It's nearly feature-complete.
My idea of plugging a RC2014 bridge directly onto a Sega Master System
cartridge doesn't work. The SMS eats all I/O addr space, we can't use
it. Therefore, this naive idea, in the emulator, of reusing sdc.c in
sms.c as-is, doesn't work either.
I'll have to find another way of communicating to a SPI device on the
SMS. I'll probably do it through a controller port. Meanwhile, I need
to decouple SPI from SDC in the emulator code so that I can reuse
sdc.c. This is what is done here.
