1.2.79 $WAIT : Wait for enter key press

If the compiler encounters a

{$WAIT}

directive, it will resume compiling only after the user has pressed the enter key. If the generation of info messages is turned on, then the compiler will display the following message:

Press <return> to continue

before waiting for a keypress.

Remark This may interfere with automatic compilation processes. It should be used only for compiler debugging purposes.
