WANTED: some sort of routine that catches control-C on the atari 520
and (ideally) emulates a signal() call, but in desperation, I'll take
anything that just sets a flag when ctrl-C is hit.

The keystroke intercept routine from a memory resident utility would
probably be ideal.

If such a routine is not currently available, I could use some pointers
on where these characters are available to be intercepted.  Taking them
out of the acia seems to reset the interrupt condition and I don't feel
like duplicating Atari's entire ROM input routine.
