SET ESCAPE


Syntax:     SET ESCAPE ON/off/(<expL>)

Purpose:    To toggle the ability to terminate a READ with Esc.

Usage:      If SET ESCAPE is ON, pressing Esc during a READ terminates
            the READ.  Any changes made to the current GET are lost, and
            validation with RANGE or VALID is bypassed.

            SET ESCAPE OFF causes Esc to be ignored by READ.  SET KEY,
            however, can be used to provide customized handling of the
            Esc key.  In this case normal handling of Esc during READ is
            preempted, regardless of the ESCAPE SETting.

Library:    CLIPPER.LIB
