I am trying to emulate the nodelay function in the System V
implementation of curses, but I am having no luck.  I assume that I
need to set a flag to make non-blocking reads with stdin.  I have
tried using fcntl() with no avail.  This is what I think should work -

	fok = fcntl(stdin, F_SETFL, FNDELAY);

I know that this is wrong, but I cannot come up with the correct call.

Could someone please explain what I am doing wrong and show me the
correct code?


Thank you

Stacy
