$f = fopen("php://stdin","r");
$command = fread($f,1);
fclose($f);

Would that not read a single character?

Hi there,

I found a way to read input from a console mode in linux, very simple open
php://stdin to read from the standard input system. THE PROBLEM is i can't
just read one character it always waits for the user to press enter which is
not what i intended to do.

When i write "Please press a key to continue" if the user presses anything
else than enter it appears on the screen. and the input ends only when he
presses enter. If you are a C/C++ programmer you can compare that to the cin
>>> command.

I need something to read only one char at a time if needed!

thank you
