[Coco] [Color Computer] INKEY equivalent for C?

[Bob Devries]

Problem with getchar() is that the stdin stream is by default buffered. You 
need to do the following to set the buffering to 0:

stdout->_flag |= _UNBUF;
stdin->_flag |= _UNBUF;

Just insert that somewhere *before* you get any keyboard input in your 
programme.
