## ReadChar

    $cons->ReadChar([number, col, row])

Reads the specified number of consecutive characters from the console, beginning at col and row. Returns a string containing the characters read, or `undef` on error. You can then pass the returned variable to `WriteChar` to restore the saved characters on screen.
