Sort of, except you need to read the docs for getch() closely.
Notice that
1) it returns bytes not a string
2) if the key is special - eg a Function Key - you need a
   second getch() call to get the real key...

If you read the "Event Driven programming topic in my
tutor(see .sig) you will see an example of using msvcrt.getch()
