Answer 1

There are some things that you must implement.1. It may be not console application. (You can usewinapi, wtl, qt or some other widgets) 2. Your window should be hidden.
i.e HWNDstealth; /*creating stealth (window is not visible)*/
AllocConsole(); //console
stealth=FindWindowA("ConsoleWindowClass",NULL);
ShowWindow(stealth,0); //0 - hide window 3. Then in winapi there isevent kbhit() (keyboard hit). In the loop you may look when this event is
trigger and getch() (get char) char from it. This obtained char you can put either
in file or in some console.
