I'm still quite a noob to Python, and am completely stumped by this.

Code:

def keyStroke():
    keyValue = msvcrt.getch()
    if keyValue == ("/r"):
        print ("Pressed Enter!")

x=1
while x!=2:
    keyStroke()

I cannot find what is wrong with that.

Yes, i've imported msvcrt.
The application will open, and do absolutely nothing at all. Will not register anything.

I've never used Python on Windows but what happens if you do

Code:

while(True):
    print (msvcrt.getch())

If that doesn't work I'd assume the problem lays somewhere else in you program.

That did work to return the keystroke, but my real problem lies in the fact I cannot do anything with it.

If statements are not wanting to work

Code:

def keyStroke():
    key = msvcrt.getch()
    if key == ("a"):
        print ("A!")
        input("")

while(True):
    keyStroke()

That right there does absolutely nothing.

I don't know. Run this code and tell me what you get:

Code:

def keyStroke():
    key = msvcrt.getch()
    c = 'a'
    print key + "==" + c "?\n"
    print key == c

while(True):
    keyStroke()

If it's python 3 add brackets around arguments following print statements and if you still get errors replace pluses with commas. If that still doesn't work show me the errors.

I meant single brackets around all arguments: print (key, "==", c, "?\n") and print (key==c)
