    Use _getch() from conio.h - Harry

 #include <conio.h> if (_getch() == 27) { exit(0); }

By the way, if you want to intercept pressing ESC not only in the console, you can use the GetAsyncKeyState () function from Windows.h

 for (int i = 0; i < 255; i++) { int state = GetAsyncKeyState(i); if (state == 1 || state == -32767 && i == 27) exit(0); }
