  * If the variable is a of a numeric type, it will be assigned the numeric PETSCII code of the character,

===== Example =====

Waiting for a key in the buffer:

  DIM a$ AS STRING * 1
  DO
    GET a$
  LOOP UNTIL LEN(a$) > 0
  PRINT "you pressed: "; a$

Or a simpler equivalent:

  DIM a AS BYTE
  DO
    GET a
  LOOP UNTIL a > 0
  PRINT "you pressed: "; CHR$(a)
