NAME
	CDInputHandler -- handle an input event for the console device

    SYNOPSIS
	events = CDInputHandler(events, consoleDevice)
		       a0      a1

    FUNCTION
	Accept input events from the producer, which is usually the
	rom input.task.

    INPUTS
	events - a pointer to a list of input events.
	consoleDevice - a pointer to the library base address of the
	    console device.  This has the same value as ConsoleDevice
	    described below.

    RESULTS
	events - a pointer to a list of input events not used by this
	    handler.

    NOTES
	This function is available for historical reasons.  It is
	preferred that input events be fed to the system via the
	WriteEvent command of the input.device.

	This function is different from standard device commands in
	that it is a function in the console device library vectors.
	In order to obtain a valid library base pointer for the
	console device (a.k.a. ConsoleDevice) call
	OpenDevice("console.device", -1, IOStdReq, 0),
	and then grab the io_Device pointer field out of the IOStdReq
	and use as ConsoleDevice.
