<B>INPUT$ Read Specified Number of Characters</B>
|
|
|
|
<B>INPUT$</B>(<U>n</U> [,[#]<U>filenum</U>])
|
|
|
|
Returns a specified number of characters from a specified sequential
|
|
file or device, or from the keyboard.
|
|
|
|
<U>n</U> The number of characters to be read. Must be in the range
|
|
1 to 255.
|
|
|
|
<U>filenum</U> The number under which the input file was OPENed. If
|
|
omitted, the characters are read from the standard input
|
|
device (the keyboard, by default). Characters input from
|
|
the keyboard are not echoed to the screen.
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
<B>Notes:</B> The INPUT$ function terminates when the specified number
|
|
of characters have been received. It is not necessary to
|
|
press Enter.
|
|
|
|
INPUT$ doesn't allow the inputting of certain special key
|
|
combinations (for example, function and cursor keys).
|
|
These keys will return CHR$(0). Use INKEY$ to get around
|
|
this limitation.
