INKEY$

INKEY$ is a command in the BASIC programming language. It is a device I/O function that reads a character from the keyboard. It inputs a KEY and sends it to a STRING variable.

Brings back memories for many people who learned BASIC as a kid and haven't used it since.

And, who could forget everyone's favorite pause command:

DO WHILE INKEY$ = ""

Or was I the only one who used it? Hehe, now that I look back.. that uses 100% CPU, doesn't it?

The name of an Aphex Twin song on the Richard D. James Album.
