Many times I have wanted to set 'stdin' in my programs to what is often
referred to as 'CBREAK' mode. Basically, that means that every time you
call getchar() you get a character. Up until now there was no easy way
to do that. The enclosed shar file contains three files, testraw.c
raw.c and sendpacket.c. The interesting one is raw.c which contains the
functions raw() and cooked(). These take a file pointer (FILE *) and
convert it to raw mode or cooked mode respectively. The testraw.c file
shows how it is done. Note that this will probably only work for Lattice
users since it uses the Lattice ios1.h file to find the DOS FileHandle
associated with a 'Level 2' file. Anyway, it was short so it is included
here complete.

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
