Press any key to continue... bug?

[Miven Dooligan <dooligan intergate ca>]

A little thing that's been bugging me for quite a long time:
Using mc I get the habit of F10 to cancel things, so when I
run something from the F2 user menu and it asks me to
"Press any key to continue..." I seem to tap F10 by habit, which
leaves a bunch of junk on the command line when the panels
return, which I have to backspace though.
This little hack uses read() to suck the keyboard dry so that
I'm not left with chars in the buffer, and I have a nice clean
commandline.

Does this seem like a reasonable approach?

Peace and Cheers.
