Command SET ESCAPE Foundation
Activates or deactivates the Esc key as an exit key for READ.
SET ESCAPE ON | off | <lToggle>
The command SET ESCAPE OFF results in the ESC key being ignored as an exit key during execution of the READ command. If SET ESCAPE is set to ON (the default setting), the current READ command is terminated if the Esc key is pressed. The original value is reassigned to the variable being edited by the current Get object. Data validation specified using the options VALID or RANGE (on the @ GET... command) is ignored.
