You can't. Getting the key is a I/O operation on the terminal.
Each terminal has its own language, which is out of the scope
of the standard C++ (well, at least I am sure of that for C,
C++ should be the same I guess).
You need to use some layer, like ncurses or something.
Or go to X Window where you can handle Key events.
Maybe SDL is good for that also (I don't know if it works for
terminals, check it).
