Synopsis:
    #include <conio.h>
    int cscanf( const char *format, ... );

Description:
    The cscanf function scans input from the console under control of the
    argument format.  Following the format string is a list of addresses to
    receive values.  The cscanf function uses the function  getche to read
    characters from the console.  The format string is described under the
    description of the  scanf function.

Returns:
    The cscanf function returns  EOF when the scanning is terminated by
    reaching the end of the input stream.  Otherwise, the number of input
    arguments for which values were successfully scanned and stored is
    returned.  When a file input error occurs, the  errno global variable
    may be set.

Example:
    To scan a date in the form "Saturday April 18 1987":

    #include <conio.h>

    void main()
      {
        int day, year;
        char weekday[10], month[12];

        cscanf( "%s %s %d %d",
                weekday, month, &day, &year );
        cprintf( "\n%s, %s %d, %d\n",
                weekday, month, day, year );
      }
