Question

In Java, I’m looking for a method that would allow me to wait for the user to press any key before continuing (or if one does not currently exist, I’m looking to implement it with a BufferedReader, if possible). How would I determine if the user has typed any key – not just enter?

This would be somewhat similar to something like Console.ReadKey() in C#.

You may try jcurses.

Sample:

public class Test{
  public static void main(String []args){
     jcurses.system.InputChar ch;
     ch=jcurses.system.Toolkit.readCharacter(); 
     System.out.println(ch.getCode());
  }
}
