I know how it works now. I looked into the DOOM source code and there I saw that I
just have to do a


  mask = ggiEventPoll(vis,emAll,&t);
  if (!mask) return;

  ggiEventRead(vis,&ev,emAll);

where vis is the handle of the ggi - visual.

Then I get a make code when a key is pressed and a break when it is released.

That is enough for me, I think.

Ciao
