Is there a getch()?

This is more of a general c question I think.  I want someone to be able 
to type in a letter and have my code react immediately (not after they 
press enter).  All of the ansi c books I have say to use getch().  I 
don't have getch().  It is supposed to be in stdio.h or conio.h.  I don't 
have a conio.h and it isn't in stdio.h.  I am running linux(bunch of 
different versions) with gnu c 2.6.3.  Is there another name for getch()?

Thanks.
