Subj : console.inkey()

Hey man.. seeing as how you love that my script processes one key at a time,
I'm using inkey() even more.... except I've run into a problem!
does that surprise you?! I didn't think so
I'm trying to use a switch statement to catch arrow keys from console.inkey()
It doesn't seem to be working.. it is passing some fancy ansi thru instead, and
not catch them. do the K_<mode> bits work with console.inkey()?
here's how I wrote it, ... and none of the cases pick up the keys:
var key=console.inkey();
switch(key) {
case KEY_DOWN:
case KEY_UP:
case KEY_LEFT:
case KEY_RIGHT:
case '\x1e':
case '\x0a':
case '\x06':
case '\x1d':
write("die");
break;
}
there are other cases, and such, but that was the problem area.
