GETLINE
AnyType GETLINE( NumericType RequestedType )
Provides a method to get input from keyboard within functions and
or subroutines. RequestedType can be one of NUMERIC_TYPE,
POINT_TYPE, VECTOR_TYPE, or PLANE_TYPE in which the entered line
will be parsed into one, three, or four numeric values (sperated by
either spaces or commas) and the proper object will be created and
returned. In any other case, including failure to parse the numeric
input, a STRING_TYPE object will be constructed from the entered line.
Example:
Pt = GETLINE( point_type );
to read one point (three numeric values) from stdin.
