Something else I was just thinking is that if you could get the Unix version of getch as a proc object, it could be used instead of the Win32API version I used. I believe that can be gotten from the Curses library. That would minimize the difference between each platform, and wouldn't require external programs like Vincent's does. My only concern would be whether the enter key was always decimal 13 on each machine...I do know that newlines in text files on each platform are different (CRLF on Windows, CR in Unix, LF in Mac...though maybe OS X is like Unix.)
