+Low layer range: 566-568

+Implement a (key) word that interpret keystrokes from the
+builtin keyboard. The word waits for a digit to be pressed and
+returns the corresponding ASCII value.
+
+This routine waits for a key to be pressed, but before that, it
+waits for all keys to be de-pressed. It does that to ensure
+that two calls to _wait only go through after two actual key
+presses (otherwise, the user doesn't have enough time to
+de-press the button before the next _wait routine registers the
+same key press as a second one).
