I have some experience in using Apple Pascal(using the UCSD Pascal) and I have
used a loop that will continue until either a defined key or any key is pressed
on the keyboard.  

Now, I am writing a program that I would like to simulate this feature in C. I
would like to use it something like this:

                 do {
                  .
                  .
                  .  }
                 until keypress();

I haven't been programming in C that long but I am rather familiar with the
language.  I am programming on an AT&T 3B5 computer running SYSTEM V UNIX.  I
was thinking that I might have to use something in termcap, terminfo, stty,
or even curses or raw I/O to do this, but I am just getting into that level 
of C programming.

If there is anyone out there who can give me some information as to how 
I can implement this function, PLEASE do so as soon as possible.

Thanks in advanced.
