I’m certain there is. kbhit() is a non-portable function, check your docs.
There is most definitely a POSIX or ANSI compliant equivalent, although for
those of us that have typically only worked on POSIX systems (and hence do
not have the kbhit() function) you’ll have to tell us what it does so that
we can tell you what the portable POSIX/ANSI equivalent would be.

Look at tcischars().

Thanks, that looks like it should work.
Is there a POSIX equivalant?

I’m not sure there is a POSIX equivalent.
Probably the closest way to do it in a standard Unix manner
would be select() with a pointer to a timeval structure with
all times being 0. (This will effect a poll.)
