A quick often unknown pause trick.

A quick often unknown pause trick.

If no input is need from the user, but you want to pause until the user presses a key, just type "sleep". When no time is specified with it, it waits until a key is pressed. This is not good if you are going to use inkey$ for input directly after the sleep, as the input seeps out to the inley$ command.
