PERL Programming question?

Ok so what I want to do, is have a program using normal input and output STDIN and STDOUT, terminate, or exit the loop if say, F5 is pressed. Just a single keystroke. I can't find any good examples online so I'm a little stuck. I'm fairly new to PERL. Help?

    There is nothing built in to Perl to let you do read function keys. You can do it if you use the Tk module but it sounds like you want a plain old terminal program?
