  hi..
  there is no shift-keys retrieval ioctl implemented in FreeBSD... why?

  the KDGKBSTATE ioctl returns just the lock-keys state. actualy it takes
the flags int and masks it with the lock-keys bitmask. some applications
need the shift-keys state (such as mcedit and the tvision library) and i
have added another ioctl to provide it (i could use the same ioctl
but... nevermind :).

  is there a problem adding something like 'options KBD_SHIFTSTATES' to
the configuration scripts or somthing... :)

  the second thing is ALT = META... AT keyboards don't have meta keys and
alt for meta is fine...

  ..thanks :)
