SysGetKey

>>-SysGetKey(-+-----+-)----------------------------------------><
              +-opt-+

Reads and returns the next key from the keyboard buffer. If the keyboard buffer is empty, SysGetKey waits until a key is pressed. Unlike the CHARIN built-in function, SysGetKey does not wait until the Enter key is pressed.

Parameter:

opt

An option controlling screen echoing. Allowed values are:

"ECHO"

Echo the pressed key to the screen. This is the default.

"NOECHO"

Do not echo the pressed key.
