Shijith could have made the assumption that if the indicators assigned
to the function keys were all off then Enter had been used. But he
didn't do that. He thought there ought to be a way to test for it
explicitly, so he came here and found the answer he was looking for. I
can't see anything in this thread that leads me to believe his programs
will be of a poor quality. I've known plenty of programmers in the West
who weren't aware they could test the AID byte.

I think it's a mistake to think you can rely on superior programming
ability to beat off competition from Indian software houses. Programmers
in India are just as clever as programmers anywhere else.
