I wrote a menu driven program which prompts the user for various information and then reads this information using "[w]scanw()" command. The problem is that the terminal doesn't echo the characters as they are being typed in. If I use "echo()" before "[w]scanw()", the entire message is echoed after the user hits RETURN. But I want the characters to be echoed as they are entered. Is there any way I can do it? Sam Shteingart Bell Labs, Holmdel, 1L-216 (201)-949-5888 hocda!ss
