// StdinReady() works as well without calling StdinSetRaw()
// but then it returns 1 only after the user presses RETURN
int StdinReady(void);
// STDIN has got something => 1, nothing to read from STDIN => 0,
//   problems => -1

// read a character from standard input, returns zero if input is empty

// empty => return 0; key pressed => return key; problems => return -1;

// restore standard input to state as before StdinSetRaw()

// for now it always returns 0
