Hi.

Say in a program after the initial run, you need to ask the user to either press R to rerun, enter to continue. How would you go about doing so?

How about say if I wanted the user to press the Enter key in order for the program to continue. I can't seem to find anything that would allow key recognition.

you can use this program to determined ASCII value of any key pressed

code:

var c:string(1)
getch(c)
put ord(c)


or just simply use

code:

loop
if hasch then
getch(c)
exit
end if
end loop

continue program here...


hasch returns true if any key is waiting to be read from the buffer
