GUIDE
Function
Set the display input guide flag in an INPUTSTR or PROMPTSTR statement.
(Displays "()" above current line for FIELDLEN used and ANSI not enabled)
Value
4 = 100b = 4o = 4h
Remarks
The INPUTSTR and PROMPTSTR statements have the ability to display the
length of an input field, regardless of ANSI availability, if you use
this constant with the FIELDLEN constant. If ANSI is not available
and this constant is used, the user will see the input field width
marked using "(---)" above the input field.
Example
STRING pwd
INPUTSTR "Enter id number",pwd,@X0E,4,"0123456789",FIELDLEN+GUIDE
IF (pwd <> "1234") PRINTLN "Bad id number"
