Speaking of which, for us lowly gnu (golly its not kansas) gcc
folks, is there ANY workaround in character mode to read single
characters from the keyboard ala getch() ? Do more recently updated
libs support this function? Can one call a supplied vio or pm
functions from a window compatible program ?

This is an absolute essential for me, and if there's no way to do it
with gcc then it's going to mean signficant $$$ to buy a complier
that does (any suggestions ?)
