WAIT
WAIT causes all program processing to pause until any key is pressed.
Syntax
WAIT [<prompt>] [TO <memvarC>]
Options
Prompt: The <prompt> is a character string WAIT displays if
specified. If no <prompt> is specified, the default prompt is
"Press any key to continue..."
Memory variable: The TO <memvarC> clause creates the specified
memory variable that contains the character entered.
Usage
WAIT returns the character entered into the specified character memory
variable. If a non-printable character is entered, WAIT returns zero
to the character variable. Function keys are ignored unless assigned
with SET FUNCTION or SET KEY.
