I am new to python, and have written a simple program to read a port via telnet. I would like it to run until any key is pressed. Of course I wouldn't mind requiring a specific keystroke in the future, but I would think this is simpler for now.
I have used kbhit() and getch() many times in C, but I can't find anything similar in Python. I am using Linux also, so the msvcrt code isn't an option. I have tried sys.stdin.read(), but that hangs UNTIL a key is pressed. Thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
