        When the AgendA came out there was a program that shipped with it to
allow you to use the AgendA as a serial keyboard to a DOS machine when
it was run--I don't know the full details as I was using mine to dump
finished documents into my Amiga. Anyway, I need a program that takes
a "chord" made on the keyboard and instead of storing it internally as
an ASCII character sends it out the serial port and to the Newton. I
don't know that much about BBC Basic, but it's what the AgendA was
supposed to use. Am I being vaguely coherent? Sorry, but it's been a
really *long* day...
