DoubleDOS - SET/RESET KEYBOARD CONTROL FLAGS

AH = E8h
AL = program for which to set flags (00h this program, 01h other)
DX = keyboard control flags (see #02088)

Return:
DX = previous flags

Notes: Disabling Ctrl-PrtSc will allow the program to intercept the keystroke; disabling any of the other keystrokes disables them completely. Identical to AH=F8h
