I don't really have any code.  Those were the wait_key() and get_key()
commands I were talking about.  What I want is to program my own keyboarding
routines that repeatedly recognize a key from the keyboard without a pause,
like for moving a player in a game, like a side-scroller or something.  I
just don't know how to do it.  I'm not that good with Euphoria yet.  I'm
asking what I need to do to make this happen.
