Thanks Samuel for the quick fix. My app is window-based, but I'm not sure
how to send the window id to the enterTtyMode(). I have a HWND handle and I
know how to get a process Id from that, but I don't understand how those
relate to the method arguments tty and driver. Sorry if I'm being thick.

I have a listener attached to the window, so if I pass the correct arguments
to enterTtyMode() I should receive the button callback though my window
handler so there is no need to call the readKey() method anymore, right?

Thanks for all the help.
