Hello,
I am programming some kind of shell in special distribution of Linux. My trouble comes with programming the sort function. It should work the same like in the standard shell. When you terminate input, there's need to put End Of Transmission character, which is CTRL+D. But I am not able to do it right. I tried this:
but if the ctrl+d didn't come right after new line (enter), i need to press it twice. So it doesn't work right. Please, would you have any advice?
Thank you very much!

readkey
readkey(3alleg4) Allegro manual readkey(3alleg4)NAME
readkey - Returns the next character from the keyboard buffer. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
int readkey();
DESCRIPTION
Returns the next character from the keyboard buffer, in ASCII format. If the buffer is empty, it waits until a key is pressed. You can see
if there are queued keypresses with keypressed().
The low byte of the return value contains the ASCII code of the key, and the high byte the scancode. The scancode remains the same whatever
the state of the shift, ctrl and alt keys, while the ASCII code is affected by shift and ctrl in the normal way (shift changes case,
ctrl+letter gives the position of that letter in the alphabet, eg. ctrl+A = 1, ctrl+B = 2, etc). Pressing alt+key returns only the scan-
code, with a zero ASCII code in the low byte. For example:
int val;
...
val = readkey();
if ((val & 0xff) == 'd') /* by ASCII code */
allegro_message("You pressed 'd'
");
if ((val >> 8) == KEY_SPACE) /* by scancode */
allegro_message("You pressed Space
");
if ((val & 0xff) == 3) /* ctrl+letter */
allegro_message("You pressed Control+C
");
if (val == (KEY_X << 8)) /* alt+letter */
allegro_message("You pressed Alt+X
");
This function cannot return character values greater than 255. If you need to read Unicode input, use ureadkey() instead.
