Can you reproduce this with just Win32::CN, without POE?
Is this a permissions issue?
Have you checked the relevant bugtrackers for a known issue?

Perl was originally developed for Unix. In that operating system, all
input/output devices are considered part of the file system, and
reading from a keyboard uses the same I/O functions as reading from a
file, so there are no special keyboard input statements. There are
functions that are used only for "terminal" I/O (what keyboards are
normally attached to) to set how special characters are interpreted.

Perl depends upon the underlying operating system to detect the ctrl,
shift, and alt keys and modify the character passed to the program
accordingly. Detecting the modifier keys is a low-level function, and
Perl is a high-level language.

I would suggest that you refrain from including this paragraph of
justification in all your posts. I rather doubt anyone here is
interested in what you are doing or why, simply in what your Perl
problem is.
Getting a good feel for what is information is likely to be relevant to
solving a problem, and what is not, is an important part of learning
to be a programmer.

You clearly didn't look very hard. Did you really not find
Term::ReadKey?

You will need to clarify what those functions do. The last version of
BASIC I used (BBC BASIC IV on the Master 128) had INKEY and INKEY$ but
no GETKEY :).

Perl's 'level' is not the point. Part of the point of Perl is that you
can access the OS at any level you choose, without losing high-level
advantages like automatic memory management.
Detecting actual key presses is a very system-dependant matter. You (the
OP) have implied you are using Win32: is this a console-mode
application, or a GUI? If it's console-mode, you probably want
Win32::Console; if it's a GUI application, whichever GUI toolkit you are
using will provide functions to read the keyboard events.
If you don't need to detect actual key presses (that is, you don't need
individual 'control-down' and 'control-up' notifications) but simply
need to read input without waiting for a newline (what a Unix person
would call 'cbreak mode'), you want the Term::ReadKey module.

Meh. That FAQ answer is not terribly good. All that stuff about doing
termios by hand is neither appropriate nor portable nowadays.

The OP apparently could not be troubled to check the Perl FAQ
before posting to the Perl newsgroup.

Right.
But all 3 of the FAQs from
perldoc -q keyboard
mention Term::ReadKey :-)

I did go through the Perl FAQ and tried everything I could find that I also
understood.
For some reason I did not any information regarding the Term::ReadKey option
but will try to find it now and see if I can get it to work.

There is (or has been in the past) a reason for including that information.
I am advising researchers including government scientists around the world
regarding a number of different humanitarian and/or disaster mitigation
projects. And based on my recommendations some will probably be using a
Perl - Gnuplot graphics (to some extent) combination to do some of their
research. If I have a problem understanding the information then the rest
of the researchers will have a problem. So, some good programming advise
can save multiple parties some time and effort.

What we essentially want to do is simply determine that a key was pressed,
tell what key it was, and then clear that key press out of the Windows
keyboard buffer. One of the problems with IsKeyPressed in the mode I am
using it is the fact I have to check each key of interest with statements
like:
if (Win32::GuiTest::IsKeyPressed("A")){$keyboard = 'A'};
if (Win32::GuiTest::IsKeyPressed("B")){$keyboard = 'B'};
Some versions of Basic and other languages just say:
$keyboard = Inkey for example. And the program does the rest.

Win32::GuiTest is a package that I downloaded from one of the repository
sites and installed in Perl. It lets you read keys and also send keystrokes
to Windows as if they were typed in by hand.
