The procedure you want to learn about is:
PROCEDURE GetKeys (VAR theKeys:KeyMap);

KeyMap is basically and array of Bits that represent the current keboard
state. Your favorite Mac programming reference should be able to describe
this who idea in more detail.
It should be located in the chapter that discusses "The Toolbox Event Manager"
in Inside Macintosh. I use "SpInside Macintosh", so I can't help you with
page numbers.
