Try this conio.h
file:
#include <termios.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
/* reads from keypress, doesn't echo */
int getch(void)
{
struct termios oldattr, newattr;
int ch;
tcgetattr( STDIN_FILENO, &oldattr );
newattr = oldattr;
newattr.c_lflag &= ~( ICANON | ECHO );
tcsetattr( STDIN_FILENO, TCSANOW, &newattr );
ch = getchar();
tcsetattr( STDIN_FILENO, TCSANOW, &oldattr );
return ch;
}
/* reads from keypress, echoes */
int getche(void)
{
struct termios oldattr, newattr;
int ch;
tcgetattr( STDIN_FILENO, &oldattr );
newattr = oldattr;
newattr.c_lflag &= ~( ICANON );
tcsetattr( STDIN_FILENO, TCSANOW, &newattr );
ch = getchar();
tcsetattr( STDIN_FILENO, TCSANOW, &oldattr );
return ch;
}
You can also use the ncurses library in gcc for some functions similar to conio.h
.
