_CREATING TSR PROGRAMS, PART II_

ShiftComb: BYTE; {Hot key--shift key comb}
KeyChr : CHAR ); {Hot Key--character key.}
{
ShiftComb and KeyChr specify the default hot keys for the TSR.
ShiftComb may be created by adding or ORing the constants AltKey,
CtrlKey, LeftKey, and RightKey together. KeyChr may be
characters 0-9 and A-Z.
The default hot keys may be overridden when the TSR is installed
by specifying optional parameters on the command line. The
parameter format is:
[/A] [/C] [/R] [/L] [/"[K["]]]
The square brackets surround optional items--do not include them.
Any characters between parameters are ignored. The order of the
characters does not matter; however, the shift keys specified are
cummulative and the last character key "K" specified is the used.
