I've a terminal app where I read y/n confirm using fmt.Scanln and I'm trying to flush the keyboard buffer before this.
On linux (and probably other UNIX systems) I can use unix.Syscall(unix.SYS_IOCTL, 0, unix.TCFLSH, 0) but this isn't portable (specifically to macOS which it would be nice to support) since on cross compiling I see "undefined: unix.TCFLSH" Maybe this is some BSDism? Rossetta code suggests using a ncurses function from https://github.com/rthornton128/goncurses but that seems sort of ugly? https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Keyboard_input/Flush_the_keyboard_buffer#Go Is there a simple way which works at least on UNIX and macOS? -- Steve Mynott <steve.myn...@gmail.com> cv25519/ECF8B611205B447E091246AF959E3D6197190DD5 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
