Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Quote («quote»)
 
     Reads one key from the keyboard and types it into the file or
     dialog box. In a dialog box, the key is always CTRL+P, no matter
     what function or macro you may have assigned to CTRL+P for the
     editor.
 
     This is useful for typing a character (such as TAB or CTRL+L) whose
     keystroke is assigned to a PWB function.
 
     Returns
 
     True:  Quote always returns true except in the following case.
     False: Character would make line too long.
