Please Help

How I can detect a particular Key Combination through programming in Unix.

to trap the signals there are methods but control+L is not detected as a signal so how can I detect that combination of Key Hit and how to detect the Arrow Key Hits as each key hit is itself returning three values
The first two values of all four keys is same only the last key value is different.

I tried to use the getkey function of curses and select and poll funtions but my problem is not solved please help...



Thanks

NAME
keypressed - Tells if there are keypresses waiting in the input buffer. Allegro game programming library. SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h> int keypressed(); DESCRIPTION
Returns TRUE if there are keypresses waiting in the input buffer. You can use this to see if the next call to readkey() is going to block or to simply wait for the user to press a key while you still update the screen possibly drawing some animation. Example: while (!keypressed()) { /* Show cool animated logo. */ } /* So he skipped our title screen. */ SEE ALSO
