Hi,

since nobody has answered me yet, and I haven't been able to fix the problem 
so far, I'll repost it in a slightly different way:

I'm looking for a way to get one-char-at-a-time stdin input in an xterm, using 
only the Win32 APIs (e.g. from wincon.h). It works in the XP console, but in 
XFree86/xterm my program doesn't get any input at all, and all input I type 
stays in the buffer and goes to the shell when I kill my program with Ctrl-C.

Can anybody tell me how to get xterm to talk to me?

Thanks in advance,
		--Björn
