get using mouse

[ElimPi]

Hello, I'm wondering if there's any way to use the mouse to complete a get. What I want is for the user to be able to click a part of the screen after typing in an integer instead of hitting enter. Is this possible?

You would have to design your own input system using hasch and getch. Using standard turing commands there is no way to do this. (That I know of)

A friend of mine told me to use "fork", but I'm not quite sure how that works, any ideas?

Its using processes, and you should generally avoid those unless you know exactly what you are doing. (You dont )

Either way, I don't think you can do this with processes. Like I said before, use getch to get one character at a time, concatenate the "gotched" characters into one large string, and then instead of stopping "getching" characters when they press enter, instead stop when they press a button (Mouse is in a certain area and they press the button down)
