[En-Nut-Discussion] kbhit

[Hugo Simon]

Hi,

is there something like a kbhit function. For testing reasons I want to
built a function that pulses a Portpin until the user presses a key. Like
this:

void test(void)
{
  puts("Pulsing PORTD Bit0");
  do
  {
    pulsebit(PORTD,0);
    NutThreadYield();
  } while (!kbhit());
  getch();
}

If there is no kbhit the only method I see is to create an extra thread to
do the pulsing. But I find this much more complicated.

Thanks
Thorsten
