That is good to hear! Unfortunately, while what you say rings true
(I could find the keyboard wait in bios.S) doing anything about it
is vastly non-trivial to me. Isn't this (wait for character on
serial port) required for lots of DOS programs? Is anyone with
knowledge of the internals interested in implementing it? I hope
so.
