- I'm writing an VIO (if that's what a character based app able to run in a
- window is called) app using C Set/2.
-
- I've noticed that kbhit() and getche() are only present in the migration
- libraries and the documentation sounds like "don't use the migration libraries
- for new programs".
-
- Well, what should I use instead? I don't want a PM app and I don't want to
- press RETURN. Should I use an OS/2 API like some category 4 Keyboard Control
- IOCtl Command?
-
- Why isn't kbhit() and getche() supported in the IBM C extensions and only in
- the migration libraries?
