I need to have single-character input via VAXC v3.0 on VMS v5.3.  Guidance
would be helpful, C-source would be greatly appreciated!

I know this is an age-old problem, so there must be an age-old solution.
From what I can tell SYS$QIOW is the system service that needs to be used,
but I have only experienced stack dumps when executing the code.


Thanks in advance.
