Subject: Terminal control on Windows NT
I want to do this:
use POSIX qw(:termios_h);
$term = POSIX::Termios->new;
$term->getattr(fileno(STDIN));
# do some terminal manipulation here
However, I get the error message on Windows NT:
POSIX::termios not implemented on this architecure
I have two questions:
1. Is there _any_ way to take user input (including control sequences such
as ^C) from Windows, and not have that input echo'd to the screen?
2. Is it possible to do this in a platform-independent manner?
