System
 
Closes all open files and ends the program

Syntax

Declare Sub System ( ByVal retval As Integer = 0 )

Usage

System( [ retval ] )

Parameters

retval
Error code returned to system.

Description

Closes all open files and returns to the system. An optional return value, an integer, can be specified to return an error code to the system. If no return value is given, a value of 0 is automatically returned. This is the same as End and is here for compatibility between older BASIC dialects. It is recommended to use End instead.

Example

Print "this text is shown"
System
Print "this text will never be shown"
