Unfortunately, getch() isn't a standard C function. It's a borland-thing, and should therefore, IMO, not be used - but it's probably great if you're a borland-user, and want to use this. Also, I would not call this a tutorial, as it's only some code. If you explained the code and what it was doing, it would be more tutorial-alike.

hey thanks for the reply. your right its not a tutorial sorry for the mixup i though u could put either raw code or tuts here,the tut on the file name was just a mistake. I use devc++ most windows compiler i guess have getch(). I wanted to make something that could work on bouth windows and Linux but im not that skilled as yet. i really cant think of a standard way of doing this that would be some major coding.

Of course! C# is not too different from C++. Which IDE are you using? VS2008/2005?
