getche

Usage

   #include <conio.h>
   int getche(void);

Description

   getche obtains a character from stdin with echo. This routine will return
   as soon as a character is available and not await a carriage return.
   getche is the same as getch except that the character is echoed to
   stdout. Like getch it bypasses the normal buffering done by getchar and
   getc. ungetc cannot be used with getche.

Example 

   #include <conio.h>
   #include <stdio.h>
   #include <stdlib.h>

   int main()
   {
       int c;
       printf("Input a character: ");
       c = getche();
       printf(" Is an example of getche\n");
       return EXIT_SUCCESS;
   }

Return Value

   Returns the next character read. getche never returns an error.
