I'm trying to read a single keypress on Linux but expect to have the programme running on Windows platform as well and find the mention in the FAQ:
import termios, fcntl, sys, os fd = sys.stdin.fileno() oldterm = termios.tcgetattr(fd) newattr = termios.tcgetattr(fd) newattr[3] = newattr[3] & ~termios.ICANON & ~termios.ECHO termios.tcsetattr(fd, termios.TCSANOW, newattr) oldflags = fcntl.fcntl(fd, fcntl.F_GETFL) fcntl.fcntl(fd, fcntl.F_SETFL, oldflags | os.O_NONBLOCK) try: while 1: try: c = sys.stdin.read(1) print "Got character", `c` except IOError: pass finally: termios.tcsetattr(fd, termios.TCSAFLUSH, oldterm) fcntl.fcntl(fd, fcntl.F_SETFL, oldflags) However this fails on the second line as sys.stdin seems to have no method fileno. Any idea how I might proceed? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
