vga_getch(3)							Svgalib User Manual						      vga_getch(3)

NAME

       vga_getch - wait for a key

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vga.h>

       int vga_getch(void);

DESCRIPTION

       waits for a key press just like getchar(3) would.

       For a non blocking check for a keypress use vga_getkey(3) or use vga_waitevent(3) if you want to wait for several events to occur at once.
