Driver

OS/A65 Keyboard driver

This driver handles the keyboard included in this board. It provides these methods

inikbd - initialize the keyboard
getkey - scan the keyboard

	con_csa.a65(excerpt from console driver)
	kdefs.i65(terminal codes definitions)
	pia6521.i65(PIA register definitions)

This driver handles the ACIA RS232 hardware included in this board. As this board does not use the standard ACIA handshake lines but lines from the VIA, this is not a general ACIA driver. In addition it includes the ACIA driver for the original BIOS V1.x board.
