I'm trying to read one byte from stdin, without the newline.
If I try something like:
>>> import os, sys
>>> os.read(sys.stdin.fileno(),1)
I can input a character, but then I have to press enter, which leaves a
newline character in the stdin buffer and requires two keypresses. Is
there any way to read only one keypress in a simple manner (i.e. no
curses)?
Depending on your OS, yes. Under *nix, you need to set the terminal to
RAW-mode.
This recipe claims to be OS-agnostinc:
