Is it necessary to use curses library to have a function compatible 
to getch() of DOS compilers or would it be possible to change the line 
buffered input stream temporarily to unbuffered (and the terminal mode 
as well, if necessary), read one character and switch back to line 
buffered mode? Is it done this way by DOS C-compilers?

Thank you in advance,
Robert
