I forget where you can trap keypresses, there is a select statement some-where.  Reserve a key for
saving state, I started a branch for it and it's quite close to being testable.

Things I'm looking fore are docs on nesticle.sta and that other nes file format.  The docs I have
on sta are not fully complete and I would like to include a copy of the rom in the image(for
game-genie).  There is some open nes format but the docs just baffeld me. it seamed to be packet
based but no real docs just blerb ware.
