#
#  Implementing getch() is a much, much more complex affair under UNIX
#  than it is under, say, MS-DOS.  This library represents one,
#  solution to the problem - one which can be run as a library, and
#  need not be compiled into the run-time system.  Note that it will
#  not work on all systems.  In particular, certain Suns (with a
#  screwy stty command) and the NeXT 1.0 OS (lacking the -g option for
#  stty) do not run getchlib properly.  See the bugs section below for
#  workarounds.
#
#  Four basic utilities are included here:
#
#	getch()		- waits until a keystroke is available &
#	    returns it without displaying it on the screen
#	getche()	- same as getch() only with echo
#	getse(s)	- like getche() only for strings.  The optional
#	    argument s gives getse() something to start with.  Use this
#           if, say, you want to read single characters in cbreak mode,
#           but get more input if the character read is the first part
#           of a longer command.  If the user backspaces over everything
#           that has been input, getse() fails.  Returns on \r or \n.
#	reset_tty()	- absolutely vital routine for putting the cur-
#           rent tty line back into cooked mode; call it before exiting
#           or you will find yourself with a locked-up terminal; use it
#           also if you must temporarily restore the terminal to cooked
#           mode
#
#  Note that getse() *must* be used in place of read(&input) if you
#  are planning on using getch() or getche(), since read(&input)
#  assumes a tty with "sane" settings.
#
#  Warning:  The routines below do not do any sophisticated output
#  processing.  As noted above, they also put your tty line in raw
#  mode.  I know, I know:  "Raw is overkill - use cbreak."  But in
#  a world that includes SysV, one must pick a lowest common denomi-
#  nator.  And no, icanon != cbreak.
#
#  BUGS: These routines will not work on systems that do not imple-
#  ment the -g option for the stty command.  The NeXT workstation is
#  an example of such a system.  Tisk, tisk.  If you are on a BSD
#  system where the network configuration makes stty | more impossible,
#  then substitute /usr/5bin/stty (or whatever your system calls the
#  System V stty command) for /bin/stty in this file.  If you have no
#  SysV stty command online, then you can try replacing every instance
#  of "stty -g 2>&1" below with "stty -g 2>&1 1> /dev/tty" or
#  something similar.

#  Example program:

#  needs to be linked with itlib.icn, iscreen.icn, and this file
#  (getchlib.icn).

#  procedure main(a)

#      # Simple pager/file searcher for UNIX systems.  Must be linked
#      # with itlib.icn and iscreen.icn.
