Otherwise please let > bygones be bygones, it's a terrible waste of time. I did explain why I have a problem with this: it breaks the MSDOS port. Now, since removing MULTI_KBOARD obviously was not discussed in advance, I'm asking Yidong and Stefan to decide which of the following is preferable: . Revert Dan's changes that removed MULTI_KBOARD. . Replace those #ifdef's that are needed by the MSDOS port (I don't know whether this means all of them or not) with #ifdef MSDOS.
