Sorry for the delay in reply, and thanks to Colin and Mike for the response.
I lazily opted for Mike's simpler solution (sorry Colin), but found that the
line needed to be changed to
while get_key() !=-1, presumably getc doesn't return an end of file marker
for the kbd.
Anyway, all sorted now, thanks again
