I need to know if there is a way to examine stdin to see if there
is a character waiting.  Something like that ol' get function in
basic which grabbed a character from the keyboard if there was one,
and if there wasn't just returned nothing.
 
I have to make this work on a Sparcstation in C, so if anyone has
an idea, I'd appreciate it if it wasn
't
machine-specific.
 
Thanks.
