Introduction
------------

A few days ago, I was writing an Amiga Dos script when I suddently
realized a thing : I didn't know how to read a string on keyboard
and store it in a variable. Instead of searching a difficult way
to do it I decided to write this small command, which stores a
string read on keyboard in an ENV variable.


Installation
------------

Just copy Input where you want. I recommand C: so your scripts
will be able to call it easily.

Don't forget you must have Ixemul.library or Input won't work.


Usage
-----

From CLI : Input Name

where name is the name of the variable you want to create.

A variable will be created in ENV:. It will be accessible
with '$' (the variable joke will be accessible with $joke).

For further details have a look at the example script
included in this archive.


Disclaimer
----------

You use Input at your own risks. It has been tested for hours on my computer
(A1200). I can't be responsible if it breaks something (it shouldn't, due
to the technics used).

History
