    {
        if( kbhit() )
        {
            gotoxy( 0, 0);
            if( shiftstate( -1 ) == 0)
            {
                printf("\fShift is on");
                shiftstate( 1 );
                resetkey();
            }
            else
            {
                printf("\fShift is off");
                shiftstate( 0 );
                resetkey();
            }
