Hi,
 
On dos/win systems there is the lib <conio.h> 
which provide many useful
functions like getch (get a char but does not echo 
and wait for <return>) or kbhit.
This lib does not exist under unix/linux systems (I 
am wrong ?)
Is there an equivalent lib ?
Thank you.

Yep, but this has nothing to do with compilers.  It's a library issue,
and GCC doesn't include a C library.

There's curses, ncurses and termcap.
