a simple keypress sensor

[Soumen banerjee]

Hello,
I am writing a little program where i have an array the elements of
which i want to display upon keypresses by the user. The only way on
linux seems like using getch() from the curses library. I wanted a
simpler solution than having to use curses for such a simple thing.
any ideas?
Regards
Soumen

A more "natural" solution - within Linux - would be to use the termios
library functions. Simple, no curses necessary.

HTH...
