Hi everybody,

I have a script, where a user can choose between different options (add user (U), add item (I), search (S)). I want the user to hit either U, I or S. However, right now, he needs to hit return as well. Is there a way to get input without hitting return?

I was thinking about a loop:

use strict;
use warnings;

my $input;

while (!$input) {
print "Enter option (A, B, C) \n";
$input=<STDIN>;
}
print $input;

As you can see, a user still needs to hit enter. I'm glad for every hint.

Thanks in advance!

Greg
