Keyboard control of the platform is now enabled - the numpad keys do the following.
7 - left wheel forward 8 - both forward 9 - right forward
4 - left forward right reverse 5 & spacebar - stop 6 - left reverse right forward
1 - left reverse 2 - both reverse 3 right reverse

Theoretically it could be put on the floor and we could test it - probably would want to go through a test of the key pad first.
