IMHO it is not a good idea for a function as used as ofthen as readkey
to return a complex type.

I think it would be better to just return the scancode of the key,
and create a function al_acii_from_scancode(SCANCODE)
(just using the current al_key_shifts value.

(as you all can see I'm trying to get used to the prefixing already ;-)
