GET etc. never return Ctrl-@

[jgharston]

Is there a reason for GET/GET$/INKEY/INKEY$ and elsewhere to use constructions like this?
do {
ch=emulate_get() & 0xFF;
} while (ch==0);

It means that Ctrl-@ is never passed back to the caller.

This was a side-effect of fixing another bug where some keys (notably the cursor keys) returned two values in quick succession - a 0 followed by its actual value.

Ah, so fixing the bug in keyboard.c removes the need for it in the caller.
