How you access/control keyboards, screens, and pointing devices (``mice'')
is system-dependent. Try the following modules:
<DL>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="item_Keyboard">Keyboard</A></STRONG><P>
<DD>
<PRE> Term::Cap Standard perl distribution
Term::ReadKey CPAN
Term::ReadLine::Gnu CPAN
Term::ReadLine::Perl CPAN
Term::Screen CPAN
</PRE>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="item_Screen">Screen</A></STRONG><P>
<DD>
<PRE> Term::Cap Standard perl distribution
Curses CPAN
Term::ANSIColor CPAN
</PRE>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="item_Mouse">Mouse</A></STRONG><P>
<DD>
<PRE> Tk CPAN
</PRE>
</DL>
