| Can anyone tell me how to get a character from the screen (I mean keyboard)
| without requiring a carriage return?  cin won't work, and neither will
| "&istream get(char c)" funtion.  Thanks.  Sorry I know this is not really

You could use the "getch ()" function in <conio.h>. Or, you could use
the ncurses library or alternatively use tcsetattr to change the
terminal settings (like Eli suggested).
