Hi, I am trying to find out if a keyboard buffer is empty but not reading
it because I don't want to get stuck if there isn't any buffered.
(on ATT SVR3)
Is there a 'standard' way on unix to do this ?
(I am currently reading using non-canonical mode with vmin=0, then
ungetc if there is any. Hopefully there is an easier way.)
Thanks in advance.
