[Haskell-cafe] Problem with hscurses

16 Sep 2008

      the getCh funtion is supposed to return an interpreted Key with values
like KeyChar c, KeyReturn, KeyBackspace, etc.

but in fact, it only ever returns KeyChar c values !

am I doing anything wrong ?

Here's an example program :

module Main where

import UI.HSCurses.Curses
import Text.Printf
import System.IO

main = do
  hSetBuffering stdout NoBuffering
  withCurses test1

withCurses f = do
  initScr
  echo False
  cBreak True
  res <- f
  endWin
  return res

test1 = do
  c <- getCh
  printf "Touche : %s\r\n" (show c)
  test1
