Terminating or Aborting Disk File Input

As with user defined functions, the command KEYBOARD causes the tracking program command input to revert to keyboard input directly from the user. Thus, to terminate the disk file input modes it is necessary to place the KEYBOARD command at the end of the file. To abort disk file input, the user enters the KEYBOARD command directly via the keyboard and must terminate any data collection programs in use with the STOP command if that is desired. truein
