                       File Description

          LENINPUT.BAS - The sub.

          CHART.TXT - The file separately available also
                      called CHART.TXT, with codes for the
                      extended keys, including F11 and F12.

          README.TXT - This file.


    The syntax for LENINPUT$ is:
                            StrVar$ = LENINPUT$(FieldSize%)

I finished the sub a few days ago and I can't find and bugs
in it, but if there is any PLEASE post a message for me.
You can customize it to say, stop on F1 for help, or take
out the escape exit option.  The chart has the needed
codes.  If you choose to modify it and post in in
CompuServe you have my blessings, but please inform me and
mention my name in it somewhere.
