       $LISTEN()

    Adds "You Say:" in the text area at the bottom of the screen and waits for the player to type a message and press the carriage-return.

    Return Value: The text entered by the player. A lone carriage-return results in an empty string. The text is also saved for later access using $LISTENTEXT().

    Example:

    $SAY ("Please name your favorite food");
    $WHILE ($NOT ($LISTEN()))
    {
    $SAY ("I insist on knowing!");
    };
    $SAY("I like "+$LISTENTEXT()+", too.");
