Hi Dick, I'll move my replies back into the public discussion...

Then you can use getch to fetch that key and store it in a variable. Then the code above turns into: while True: if kbhit(): key = getch() if key == ' ': break elif key == 'h': print 'hello' elif key == 'q': answer = 'quit' Does that make sense?
