Simple question with an expected complex answer.
How do you, in ada, get a single keystroke such as an arrow key from the
user? Oh, and it must be a somewhat portable method. I'm writing the program
for an open VMS system with an Ada 83 compiler. I'd like to do this with just
Ada, but I'm also open to the possibility of importing a proc/funct from C or
something. Keep in mind in your response that this program is being written
for use over a terminal with vt300 emulation so forget about anything too
sneaky.
