Default Interrupt Handler

The default interrupt handler is at address $0038 in ROM and is automatically called by the Z80 in Interrupt Mode 1.

It:

  • updates the system variable frame counter;
  • scans the keyboard and updates the keyboard state system variables.

The default interrupt handler preserves all registers and has no external requirements.
