INT: true

Example

Program test;
Global
    My_text;
Begin
    My_text=write(0,320/2,200/2,4,"Press space to move this.");
    Loop
        If (key(_space))
            Move_text(My_text,rand(0,319),rand(0,199));
        End
        Frame;
    End
End

Used in example: write(), key(), rand().

    set_text_color(txt[1], rgb(255,0,0));


    while(!key(_ESC))

        counter++;

        move_text(txt[2], mouse.x, mouse.y, tz );

        set_text_color(txt[0], rand(0101010h, 0ffffffh));

        if ( key( _DOWN ) ) tz--; end
        if ( key( _UP ) ) tz++; end
