PAUSE

PAUSE

            [SIC\]PAUSE "Message"

        Set  a  break  point in a Loop or a Macro. PAUSE returns control to user
        when executed in a macro. The prompt is changed to indicate  the  execu-
        tion  level.  Any valid command can be executed while in interrupt mode.
        The execution can be resumed by typing CONTINUE, aborted by QUIT (or RE-
        TURN,  depending  whether  an error status is desired). NEXT may also be
        used for the Loop.

        If PAUSE is followed by an argument, this argument  is  typed  when  the
        pause  occurs. When typed in interactive, PAUSE generates a traceback of
        the levels of execution in SIC.

        A pause is generated after completion of the current command if you type
        <^C>  on the keyboard. This allows you to interrupt any sequence of com-
        mands (even if ON ERROR CONTINUE has been typed).
