See the commented OS 1.20 disassembley at http://mdfs.net/Docs/Comp/BBC/OS1-20
The code in the BBC MOS from &EF02 onwards shows how the firmware
interrogates the keybaord and deals with n-key rollover and elimiating
ghosting. The code from EF16 to EF4D is called on the keyboard timer
interupt to check for continued and further keypresses.

('ghosting' is a new phrase, I can't remember what it's usually called.)
