I need to be able to poll the keyboard in "C" without interrupting the program.
How would I do this?

You could try something like this. I have been using something similar here.

Thank you for your quick reply.

Any chance of you commenting the code you have on GIT?

Yes, there is a good chance. Probably wont happen until later tonight.

OK I have commented the code in key.c and key.h.

Edit: Another option would be to use ncurses

Thanks for the comments.

I forgot about ncurses.
I have never used it but several programmers I worked with wrote many terminal programs with it 25yrs ago.
Your code looks short and simple, I'll give it a try first.
