Well, after fiddling around for a while and thinking about various methods, I finally settled on using a single timer compare interrupt that points to a jump vector (INC R30/IJMP, and the last routine it jumps to resets R30 to the first vector again.)  Basically all this code does is accumulate ONE morse code into a byte.  Next I guess I need to work on talking to the PC's keyboard port and just have the one interrupt send it to the buffer for sending to the keyboard.  I'll also look into it using the mouse port and maybe some special codes to deal with mouse X/Y.  This is of course assuming I don't just get tired of screwing with it...curse this lazy streak of mine :D

And now...I'm going to take a nap...hopefully this post isn't full of errors because I'm too tired to go back over it.  Poit out...

P.S.  Totally unrelated thought...is the main point of keeping your kitchen clean so you can eat the shit that you drop on the floor?
