How do I write a function keypressed(), that returns 0 if no
char is in the input queue and returns the character otherwise?
Keypressed() should not block, and should leave the terminal in its
initial state after returning.

I can't use curses and have played around with ioctl, but its
really slow.

Any suggestions?                   Patrik
