If you wanted to be fancy (and don't need type ahead) you could flush the
stdin buffer, set term.c_iflag(?) &= ~ICANON, and
term.c_cc[VTIME] = (# of tenths you wanted tyo wait), and
read from stdin (getchar()).. But only if you didn;t need the type ahead...
IF all else fails, follow plumbers rule #1:
If it dont fit, force it. If it cbreaks(), it didn't belong there in the
first place...
Or something like that...
