The problem was to capture key presses from a vtty (including such function
keys as your keymap will allow) so they do not echo - as you might want to
do in developing a full-screen text-mode interface or a simple console-type
game.
Here is my solution in demo form,

What I really want to do: capture keypresses (including function keys) from
a (virtual) terminal without their echoing or without having to enter
a new line (i.e. hit return).
Why I do not want to use (n)curses: to use keypad in ncurses, I have
to initscr() and ncurses will then blank the screen
