Hi,
That's what I've been reading about - the getch() function. Thanks for some
directions...
Cheers,
Joseph

Hello,
To catch key press, you can use getch on windows, I don't know the linux 
equivalent but I'm sure it exists.
To move the cursor, change color, etc. , on windows there are specialized 
functions (see MSDN), on linux you can send ANSI escaped sequences 
(wikipedia has the list)
