I have a version <gppconio.h> dated 10/27/91, but there is no such declaration 
for getch() in the .h file, but coded in libpc.a.  For complete implemetation 
of Borland C conio.h, gppconio.h should also have getche(), but there is no 
declaration in .h, nor code in library. (I checked only these two functions.)

I got gppconio.h file from standarad distribution of djgpp/gcc 1.09/2.2.2.  
Possibly, you keep more updated version of gppconio.h and its library.
If so, please post it or upload to omnigate, or let me know if it is already in 
omnigate.

Thanks.

Wonkoo.
