dwFlags

Various state flags. This can be a combination of:

Flag	Meaning
ZXSTKJT_KEMPSTON	Kempston joystick emulation
ZXSTKJT_FULLER	Fuller joystick emulation

Revision history

Available since version 1.0.

chKeyboard was added in version 1.1. The size of a version 1.1 ZXSTKEYBOARD block is therefore one byte larger than in version 1.0.
