"INKEY$ is a command in the BASIC computer language. It is a device I/O function that reads a character from the keyboard. It INputs a KEY and sends it to a STRING variable." (I knew this from the aphex faq)

It's a type of inhaler medicine for asthmatics. I get a light asthma at times, but I use Albuterol (i think!). "salbutamol" as in the "salbutamol mix" is another type of asthma medicine I believe. I don't know how many other names on the Ventolin EPs are asthma-related... -Adam __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
