How can I poll the keyboard from a console python app? Specifically, I would like to do something akin to this in the midst of a lot of other I/O activities (socket selects, serial port access, etc.): while True: # doing amazing pythonic embedded stuff # ... # periodically do a non-blocking check to see if # we are being told to do something else x = keyboard.read(1000, timeout = 0) if len(x): # ok, some key got pressed # do something What is the correct pythonic way to do this on Windows? Also, portability to Linux wouldn't be bad, though it's not required.
