Ask your users to remap ESC to CTRL-C

Just do it in LISP

Unfortunately, conio.h is a header file of a proprietary library for DOS console output, so you can't be free when you use it (you can't study or modify it's code).
Thus, conio library contains a backdoor.
The piece of software in question is non-free, therefore I can't link it with my programs and I can't recommend it to anyone.

I have the source code to Microsoft's Visual Sepples CRT. I believe it comes with the Visula Studio Standard versions and above.

You can't do it in C. Give up.

He's right, it's NP complete

Dat sum redefinition of backdoor?

FFS, just because it's NP complete doesn't mean it's impossible. It will only be pratcial for small cases (< size 50), but OP's program seems simple enough, so it should work.

YHBT. It's not NP-complete.

char ch=getch();
if(ch==27)
   exit(1);

should work, i didnt bother trying

#include<conio.h>
#include<stdio.h>
int main(void){
    char ch;
    do{
        ch = getch();
        printf("%c %d\n",ch,ch);
    }while(ch!=13);//ends when this key is pressed(enter)
    return 0;
}

and run this to get the values of other keyboard keys

It's not NPC, it's just impossible with C or C++. OP will have to use some external libraries, or OS hacks.

Indent failure.

Name: Anonymous 2008-04-16 9:51

how about inserting something along the lines of:

if(kbhit() && getch()==27)
   exit(1);
