Block keyboard input in python
In Python, is there a way to prevent the user from typing anything from the keyboard so that terminal output won't clutter up with unnecessary input?
In my case, the user has to press and hold a key to register a specific keyboard - so the actual input (as in input()
) is not needed, but only clutters the output and menu.

I would recommend pygame. http://www.pygame.org/download.shtml It allows you to read all the keyboard keys as you see fit. Here is an example of what the code would look like: How do I get keyboard input in pygame?

Sounds like you want the terminal content to be redrawn on user input?
