 Use the msvcrt module.  This is a standard Windows-specific extension module.
 It defines a function ``kbhit()`` which checks whether a keyboard hit is
 present, and ``getch()`` which gets one character without echoing it.

-How do I emulate os.kill() in Windows?
---------------------------------------
-
-Prior to Python 2.7 and 3.2, to terminate a process, you can use :mod:`ctypes`:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   import ctypes
-
-   def kill(pid):
-       """kill function for Win32"""
-       kernel32 = ctypes.windll.kernel32
-       handle = kernel32.OpenProcess(1, 0, pid)
-       return (0 != kernel32.TerminateProcess(handle, 0))

-In 2.7 and 3.2, :func:`os.kill` is implemented similar to the above function,
-with the additional feature of being able to send :kbd:`Ctrl+C` and :kbd:`Ctrl+Break`
-to console subprocesses which are designed to handle those signals. See
-:func:`os.kill` for further details.
