Hey there everyone, can any of you guys tell me a way to read input from the keyboard without waiting for the keypress? What I mean is, I don't want the program to wait around all day for the user to hit a key. The program should continue doing other stuff, but when a key is pressed the program should detect it. Ideas, anyone?
Have a productive day, guys.
Your program could be doing things within a loop. One of the elements of the loop is checking for a key press. What does your programme do? OS?
Something more like a task scheduler maybe. It has several little subprograms, and it's supposed to switch between the tasks. How would I check for the keypress inside the loop without waiting for it?
Aw, rats! I was hoping for a platform-inspecific way of doing it. Drat...
Thanks anyway, guys.
