I also immediately thought of the 6502 CHRGET routine, assuming it would
also be present in the 6809 MS BASIC port. I didn't get a Google hit on
CHRGET, but with your note about it being $009F, it looks like it's
called GETNCH (get next character) in the Extended BASIC unravelled.
I mention CHRGET for the OP, as a quick web search for that term will
show a ton of articles and ideas for how it's been used elsewhere.
