As has been noted before on this list, the Wait() application does not listen for keystrokes from users. Many of you, like me, have looping Background(), Wait(), and Goto() application priority chains that prompt users to enter some data, and then repeat the instructions if no keys are pressed. The problem of course is if the user doesn't start pressing keys during the Background() call and delays until the Wait() application is called, those keys are lost.
I had solved this some time back by creating a few random length files of silence, that would replace Wait() routines in some circumstances. I have finally created a formal measured group of files, each with 1-10 seconds of silence, and put them in my sounds directory for public consumption. Not a big deal for most of you to create these files yourselves, but perhaps a minor pain that hopefully I've removed for some people who don't have sound tools handy.
