Straight out of the turing help file:
case selection statement 

Syntax   A caseStatement is:
  case expn of 
    { label compileTimeExpn {, compileTimeExpn } : 
      statementsAndDeclarations }

Consider this example:
var input : string
get input

case input of %looks at the value of input

    label "foo" : %if the value of input is foo then...
        put "You said Foo!"
    label "bar", "Bar" : %if the value of input is bar or Bar then...
        put "you said Bar!"
    label : %if none of the above cases are true then...
        put "I don't understand"
end case
