That's okay -- the other keys have been started with estart.
Einit just needs to start the mouse and the keyboard.

Are you reading from a file?  Usually stdin is the console
but the keyboard will get at least half those events instead.

Also,
			case Inkey:
				print("something for us...");
				readn(Stdin,msg,1);
this is wrong.  The data has already been read
and is in gev.data.

Event != select.

Reading one byte at a time seems like a recipe
for trouble anyway, especially if UTF is involved.
