I have a vt220 hooked up to my serial port, and run and I run SKsh 1.6 on an AUX: shell at 19200 baud. This works fine, but... I'm trying to compile and editor that works on AUX: as well as CON: (without opening a new window) Everything works fine except the input. If I use getc() It reads 1 char but it waits for a return first and CON: as wel as AUX: echo there input immidiatly. What I am looking for is a way to read one character from STDIN or Input() without CON: or AUX: echoing it and without waiting for a CR before sending the whole line. I think I have to put CON: or AUX: in raw mode to achive this. I know this is possible because MORE v 3.27 (from CBM) does read correctly, and works with AUX: and CON:. If anyone knows how to do this please send me a source or something the source for more would probably do the trick. Michael Brouwer Any replys are welcome
