This is dependent on your operating system.

If you're using some kind of *nix and have termios.h available,

Otherwise, tell us your operating system and we'll point you the right way.

It also depends on the compiler, too. Most compilers can't do it.

In your case, I would guess it's VC++ something, so getch() would work.
