Hello newsreaders!

I'm about to do Ada on 386 (or better) PCs and stuck already in very 
basic things, namely console I/O.

Simply, I would like to know how to read the keyboard (including function 
keys F1..F12 and other special keys), and secondly how to write a char 
into the screen to a certain cursor position (column, row, display 
attribute). There should be waiting and non-waiting keyboard read calls. 

My working platform would be ObjectAda for Windows (Intel 32-bit 
protected mode) console application.

                           Regards, Tapio Marjomaki
