Character Manipulation Function
int _getch(void);
wint_t _getwch(void);
_TINT _gettch(void);
Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview
The _getch function reads a character from the console without echoing.
_getwch is the wide-character version of _getch , returning a wide-character wint_t .
_gettch is the Generic version of the function; with the _MBCS or _UNICODE compiler flags determining its mapping to either _getch or _getwch .
These functions cannot be used to read CTRL+C.
In addition, _getch will need to be called twice when reading a function key or an arrow key, with the first call returning 0 or 0xE0, and the second call returning the actual key code.
See Character I/O for a discussion on non-ASCII character
input/output in an internationalized application.
