Not too clear what you mean but I suspect you want 
something like INKEY$ in BASIC?

ie it continues as soon as any key is hit?

Assuming my assumption is right you could try using curses.
There is a function called wgetch() which works like INKEY$
Its not available for Windows tho' (although you might find 
it on the web somewhere.)
