    "8.2. How to check for a keypress without blocking?
    "Use the msvcrt module. This is a standard Windows-specific
    extensions in Python 1.5 and beyond. It defines a function
    kbhit() which checks whether a keyboard hit is present; also
    getch() which gets one character without echo. Plus a few
    other goodies."
