RTEMS...kbd handler


I know this is not the primary topic of the mailing list, but here it goes.

I have rtems 3.60 & newlib 1.70 setup as follows:
	target: i386-go32-rtems
	host:   i586-unknown-linux
It works....
	I can compile the examples.  In addition I have constructed a serial
driver from various sources.  My current difficulty is detecting if a key
stroke is available.. I don't know if newlib has a "kbhit" equivalent.  I
can link libpc.a in, yet this doesn't seem to help,.  kbhit nor
bioskey(0x01) do the trick.  If I use scanf, rtems doesn't deschedule the
process voluntarily.  Scanf seems to poll for keys, and only gets
descheduled when the time-slice is up.  Does RTEMS have it's own kb
handler, or does it use djgpp's/dos' ?

Thanks,
Kurt
