#define INCL_DOSDEVIOCTL
 
USHORT DosDevIOCtl(pfFlags, 0L, 0x0072, 0x0004, hDevice)
PBYTE pfFlags;    /* pointer to variable for flags */
HFILE hDevice;    /* device handle                 */
 
The KBD_GETINTERIMFLAG function retrieves interim character flags.
 
Parameter  Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
pfFlags    Points to the variable that receives interim flags. If the
           variable is CONVERSION_REQUEST, the program requested conversion.
           If it is INTERIM_CHAR, the interim console flag is set.
 
hDevice    Identifies the keyboard that receives the device-control
           function. The handle must have been created previously by using
           the DosOpen function.
 
Return Value
 
The return value is zero if the function is successful or an error value if
an error occurs.
