raw keyboard input in PVWAVE? [message #162]

I would like to know if there is a way to get "raw" keyboard input from inside
a wave procedure or function. I'm running wave on a vaxstation 3200 running
decwindows and I would like to allow the user to cancel input by hitting a
single key (e.g. escape) or provide command key equivalents to menu selections.

All the wave input routines just poll the keyboard and wait for the user to
hit return before you can examine the input. Is there a way to get async
input from wave via the call_vms routine?

Any hints would be greatly appreciated
