OSBYTE &DC

OSBYTE &DC (220): Read/Write keycode for ESCAPE

This is the value that will be checked as an Escape character when entered into the keyboard buffer as with OSBYTE &99.

If the character matches, if the Escape character is enabled with OSBYTE &E5, and Escapes are not ignored with OSBYTE &C8, an Escape Event is generated. If the event is not claimed, the Escape state is set as with OSBYTE &7D.
