There is none. The output I see when I type 1 2 q is:

-1
   -2
  -q

If that is what you see, the problem is in your

   print -%s%ch

statement. It implicitly outputs '\n' at the end, and when terminal is
set in raw mode, this is not translated into '\r\n' as when terminal is
in canonical mode.

Try

  print -%s\r % ch

or just

  sys.stdout.write(ch)

[Linux] Detect a key press

[Jia,Lu]

Hi all
  I write a program to detect key press,but , why there is a *space*
before the character I typed.??

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys
import tty
import termios

i = sys.stdin.fileno()
o = sys.stdout.fileno()

backup = termios.tcgetattr(i)

def loop():
while 1:
ch = sys.stdin.read(1)
print -%s%ch
if ch == 'q':break

try:
tty.setraw(i)
loop()
finally:
termios.tcsetattr(i, termios.TCSADRAIN, backup)

Puzzles me too, but I know this is really easy in Curses (on top of
that, it isn't specific to Linux; curses works on many terminals)
