OK, listen to me everybody.

I said I WILL implement OpenGl but I didn't say I was already implementing
it. Yes, I am programing some DOS code for my university and finally I have
the code right now, thanks to some of you and some other good stuff I found
on the net.

Some interesting aspects:

getchar() doesn't work fine but getch() does. However it's very dificult to
print on the screen the values this function retunrs, so I had to search for
the right codes for this keys on the keyboard and I'd like to share them
with all of you:

here is the code:


char c:

if ((c = getch()) == 27)
    // Escape key was pressed so do whatever you want
if (c ==  72)
  // up arrow key was pressed so do whatever you want
if (c ==  80)
  // down arrow key was pressed so do whatever you want
if (c ==  77)
  // right arrow key was pressed so do whatever you want
if (c ==  75)
  // left arrow key was pressed so do whatever you want
if (c ==  13)
  // ENTER key was pressed so do whatever you want



Hope somebody find this usefull (besides of me)
