"Press Any Key" Flashing Box

-----------------------------------

So yeah, trying to make a sequence that halts everything until you hit a key. Now, this works fine except for that hideous flashing box.

How can I get rid of said box? I've tried Input.Pause and getch but it still remains : /

setscreen("nocursor")


If that doesn't work, its something along those lines.

I'm laughing at myself right now. Totally forgot about nocursor, thank you.

It would be much preferred for you to use View.Set() over setcreen(). If you have a question as to why, check out my tutorial on View.Set() in the Turing Walkthrough.

haha, I can't find the "any key".

Sorry...

for keyboard input you could just use
Input.Flush  % Erases any previous information on pressed keys
loop
    % anything else here
    exit when hasch  % checks to see if any key is pressed
end loop
