- Tech Support would not be able to give you much help with this, unless
- you were already a proficient PAL programmer. *You* need to take
- responsibility for ensuring that you return to Workshop in the same
- state that you left it. This means doing one of two things:
-
- 1) Go into ECHO NORMAL and use a GETCHAR()/GETEVENT loop, or
-
- 2) Use an ACCEPT to get the title and use TYPEIN to put it into the
- graph.
-
- Then you need to return back to Main mode.
