How do i get keyboard input?

Question

When I wrote programs in my high-school AP class we always imported a keyboard class and used Keyboard.readInt or .readChar or whatever type. I've downloaded the keyboard class but don't know where to put it so I can import it to my programs and I don't know of any other ways to get keyboard input and the string tokenizer method is a bit confusing. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks a lot.

Hello Fignut,,
this is the forum for the JavaHelp product, not for general java programming questions.
Unfortunately I have no supernatural powers to know how your Keyboard class looks like, so I can offer only a solution with the standard API
    String line;
    try
    { BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(System.in));
      System.out.println("Enter your text. Finish with <Ctrl>Z and <Ret>.\n");
      while((line = in.readLine()) != null)
      { System.out.println("Echo: "+line);
      in.close();
    catch (Exception e)
    { System.out.println(e);
    }Regards
