python中escape,如何在Python中检测ESCape按键？

I am running a process in a command window (Windows 7, Python 3.1) where I would like the user to abort the process by pressing the ESCape key. However, pressing the ESCape key doesn't appear to do anything :-(, the loop never breaks. I have also tried running the script from within my IDE (Wing), but again, the loop cannot be interrupted.

The following is a stripped-down version of my proof-of-concept test...

import msvcrt

import time

aborted = False

for time_remaining in range(10,0,-1):

# First of all, check if ESCape was pressed

if msvcrt.kbhit() and msvcrt.getch()==chr(27):

aborted = True

break

print(str(time_remaining)) # so I can see loop is working

time.sleep(1) # delay for 1 second

#endfor timing loop

if aborted:

print("Program was aborted")

else:

print("Program was not aborted")

time.sleep(5) # to see result in command window before it disappears!

If anyone could tell me where I might be going wrong I would be most grateful.

Python 3 strings are unicode and, therefore, must be encoded to bytes for comparison. Try this test:

if msvcrt.kbhit() and msvcrt.getch() == chr(27).encode():

aborted = True

break

Or this test:

if msvcrt.kbhit() and msvcrt.getch().decode() == chr(27):

aborted = True

break

Or this test:

if msvcrt.kbhit() and ord(msvcrt.getch()) == 27:

aborted = True

break
