Function 0Bh (11) Check Standard Input Status
Checks to see if a character is available from the standard input
device. Checks for Ctrl-Break and Ctrl-C.
On entry: AH 0Bh
Returns: AL FFh If a character is available
00h If no character is available
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This function can be used to see if a character is available at the
standard input device (usually the keyboard), before transferring
control to one of the waiting keyboard input services (Function 01h,
Function 07h, and Function 08h).
Notes: The function returns FFh if a character is available
and 00h if none is available.
If DOS encounters a Ctrl-Break or Ctrl-C, it
executes an INT 23h.
