My apologies, I should have been more clear ^-^ but that does indeed answer my question. Thank you for your patience.


EDIT:

I just stumbled upon another question while studying your code :P Your tetris, for example is displaying colors SO efficiently because input AND output are Powershell. Using powershell as direct stdin and stdout instead of batch stdin and stdout? I fear I sound foolish, I just really want to understand it.

Re: Read arrow keys and show color text in an efficient way

#18 Post by Zai1208 » 20 Aug 2020 16:15

A way to do this is with choice

Code: Select all

choice /s/n/c HKPM
::H is the up arrow key
::K is the left arrow key
::P is the down arrow key
::M is the right arrow key
