If you are asking for a ready-made function in the standard library, I don't
know one and I don't think there is one (there are recipes that work on top
of curses though).

The code in capture_key.py may look a bit scary, but just as I took it
without bothering the details you can take the resulting module without
caring about the code in it. Alternatively you can search
https://pypi.python.org
for a solution that you prefer.
