What's a "command prompt window"?  How does this differ from processing
STDIN and STDOUT normally?  Did you read what perlfaq8 says regarding
echo-free keyboard input under POSIX?  Do you have a POSIX system?
Did you read the POSIX manpage?  Did you read the standard Perl FAQ?
Did you read the Perl Win32 FAQ?  Do you know how to do what you're
asking at the C level?  Do you know the ioctls involved?  Do you know
what an ioctl is?
