I currently do that under Linux using /dev/input/*. However, that's for a special case where we want several keyboards read simultaneously. I guess what you want is a RAW-mode for your terminal, or alternatively the event-system of your windowing system. Then you can get every keystroke. But we need somewhat more information to be more helpful I fear. diez -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
