NAME
keyboard_clearstate - reset the state of all keys when in raw keyboard
mode
SYNOPSIS
#include <vgakeyboard.h>
void keyboard_clearstate(void);
DESCRIPTION
When in raw keyboard mode, svgalib receives press and release events
from the kernel and keeps track which keys are currently pressed. Call‐
ing keyboard_clearstate() sets this information to all keys released.
You can use this for cleanup at certain places in your program. In
addition svgalib resets the states of all keys when a VC switch occurs
because it does not know the current state of keys when it regains con‐
trol of the console.
