Hi!

2001-10-23  Christopher Faylor  <cgf@redhat.com>

        * fhandler_console.cc (fhandler_console::read): Remove unneeded test.
        Only honor "key down" events.

this change breaks ttyfier. unfortunately some programs (notably
ntvdm) want to see key-up events. without them they think that ctrl
key is stuck.

key-up events should work only in raw mode -- there's a check for
key-down flag in fhandler_console.cc:291

what was the reason of this change?
