Hi, I don't know where to post that question. I need a non blocking version of getch, so I set nodelay(stdscr, TRUE)However the standard delay for distinguishing "esc" key from "functions" keys pressed is too high IMO.
According to man page, timeout() is not the function to use for that purpose.
Is there an alternative to setting ESCDELAY environment variable before launching the program ?
Thanks
