Help! I'm using the Watcom C 386 9.0 compiler and need a fix or
workaround for the kbhit() bug. I'm still trying to get through to
Watcom Tech support (I guess they must be swamped with calls for their
new SQL product), but I seem to recall someone posting a quick and
dirty implementation of kbhit(). I *don't* need anything
sophisticated; all I need is to check for a keypress so I can abort a
long, slow calculation loop. Can anybody out there help me out?
