Hi Corion,

Thanks for your reply but Term::ReadKey doesn't comes with perl as standard module (atleast in perl v5.6). Also, it's not like I am trying to avoid; just curious to know if there any other possible route?

once again, Thanks for your suggestion.

Of course you could use other methods, but most of them only work on a small number of platforms. Figuring out all the differences between the OSes and their implementations of terminals is very boring. Thats what Term::ReadKey does for you. One way of turning echo off on UNIX-like platforms is `stty -echo` and turn it on again with `stty echo`.	[reply]
