     I was wondering if anybody knows how to make a program accept input
from the keyboard without the user pressing the return key.  For example,
if a user is asked a yes or no question and s/he types a y, the program
will continue as if return was pressed.  I am working on a VAX/VMS system
v5.1.  I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Allen
