    I use ShowKey() to see what letters get a response.  It works
 pretty well, tho sometimes there are weird lapses.  For example,
 *most* of the ShiftShift letter combinations are valid keys for
 me except A, F, R and U.  Why those get skipped, I've no idea.
 TSE won't recognize any ShiftShift letters by name, but will
 accept the numbers ShowKey provides.  On ShiftShift F-keys, F3
 and F9 are skipped as nonresponsive by ShowKey, yet TSE *will*
 accept assignments to any ShiftShift F-key by name, even to F3
 and F9, tho it obviously won't react to them.

    Probably more efficient that way, since I do have to have a
 note in the key assignment section anyway, telling me what 7419
 is, else I'd not remember it.
