Hi!

I want to check if a key is pressed and if so, read it. I tried:

if (kbhit()!=0) c=getkey();

It works, but it isn't redirectable. If I for example do a 'ctty com1' the
routine wants the key to be pressed on the keyboard, not on the terminal
conected to com1. Could You give me a hint?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Martin Blasczyk

P.S.: Djgpp is really great!
