This update adds support for USB keyboards, as was demonstrated on a recent YouTube video. It works from the idun shell and with all idun tools and applications.

The USB keyboard support does not work in BASIC, unless you have patched your kernal ROM.

Patching of the kernal ROM is a new feature that just entered BETA testing, and it is strictly OPTIONAL. With a patched kernal ROM you also gain improved compatibility with BASIC and with loading/using legacy programs. To take part in the BETA, visit the beta-testing channel on the new Discord server.

Note: If upgrading using 'pacman', then you should also update your idun-base files and idun-vice, if used.
