Thread: How to put a Char into the Input buffer of a console?

If all you want to do is monitor for escape then try something like:

Code:

DO
   use non-standard getch() for next user keystroke
   IF keystroke is ESC
      return
   ENDIF
   put keystroke back to console, ungetch(), so cin can read it later
WHILE user has not hit ENTER
cin.getline()

[EDIT]
This don't work - read below...
