Trapping Arrow keys
Hey Guys ,
How do we trap the arrow keys in shell programming. Or atleast can we read the ascii code of the arrow keys. I want to read the arrow keys pressed by the user and accordingly highlight the corresponding menu option. Is it possible in shell to do so ?? Thanks, Nagesh.

I don't think that the arrow keys are a part of the Ascii code. Do a man on ascii. It shows a lot but not on arrow keys.
I looked in my .exrc file, which maps keys for vi. I didn't see anything there either. You might check yours just in case. What OS are you using. Go to their website and check as well.
