INKEY$ Cannot Input Bytes for CTRL-BREAK Keystroke (31571)
This article was previously published under Q31571
SUMMARY
The manuals below incorrectly state that a stand-alone program
compiled without the /d (debug) option can read a CTRL-BREAK keystroke
with the INKEY$ function. The INKEY$ function does not return bytes
for CTRL-BREAK under any circumstances. The incorrect sentence in the
manual should be deleted.
This correction applies to the INKEY$ function documentation in the
following reference manuals:
- Page 298 of the "Microsoft QuickBasic Compiler" Versions 2.x and
3.00 manual
- Page 218 of the "Microsoft QuickBasic 4.00: Basic Language
Reference"
- Page 218 of "Microsoft Basic Compiler Version 6.00 for MS OS/2 and
MS-DOS: Basic Language Reference"
