The terminal module and reading the non-alphanumeric key presses

[bronikowski]

Hello,

another weekend with a free time, so I'm playing around with Nim. I decided 
I'll try to write a little terminal plaything but after having a good luck with 
the fact that _terminal_ implements almost everything I wanted I got stuck on 
getch() — as I guessed it only picks up the alphanumeric characters. ESC or F1 
or → all produce 7 when I ord() the return value.

Maybe I'm missing something? Like switching stdout to raw?
    
    
    import terminal
    
    setForegroundColor(stdout, ForegroundColor.fgRed)
    setStyle(stdout, {Style.styleBlink, Style.styleBright})
    var c = getch()
    echo(c, ord(c))
    

Any pointers would be welcomed!

(Or maybe I should go directly to ncurses?)
