C/C++: Capture characters from standard input without waiting for enter to be pressed
Is there a way to read standard input continuously? I want to make an X and O game and I want the player to use the the arrows to move its position on the grid. I can’t use cin because it requests you to press enter to get the input data into variables. So, does a function or an object doing that exist?
For console (text) applications you’d use something like ncurses, which does terminal ‘GUI’ controls.
For graphics applications you would use something like SDL which enables event-driven programming.
