/* $DOC$
* $TEMPLATE$

* $NAME$
* READVAR()
* $CATEGORY$
* API
* $SUBCATEGORY$
* User interface
* $ONELINER$
* Return variable name of current GET or MENU
* $SYNTAX$
* READVAR( [<cVarName>] ) --> cOldVarName
* $ARGUMENTS$
* <cVarName> is a new variable name to set.
* $RETURNS$
* READVAR() return the old variable name. If no variable previously
* was set, READVAR() return "".
* $DESCRIPTION$
* READVAR() is set inside a READ or MENU TO command to hold the
* uppercase name of the GET / MENU TO variable, and re-set back to old
* value when those commands finished. You should not normally set a
* variable name but rather use it to retrieve the name of a GET
* variable when executing a VALID or WHEN clause, or during SET KEY
* execution and you are inside a READ or MENU TO.
* $EXAMPLES$
* // display a menu, press F1 to view the MENU TO variable name
* CLS
* @ 1, 10 PROMPT "blood sucking insect that infect beds "
* @ 2, 10 PROMPT "germ; virus infection "
* @ 3, 10 PROMPT "defect; snag; (source of) malfunctioning"
* @ 4, 10 PROMPT "small hidden microphone "
* @ 6, 10 SAY "(Press F1 for a hint)"
* SET KEY 28 TO ShowVar
* MENU TO What_Is_Bug
*
* PROCEDURE ShowVar
* Alert( ReadVar() ) // WHAT_IS_BUG in red ALERT() box
* $STATUS$
* R
* $COMPLIANCE$
* READVAR() works exactly like CA-Cl*pper's READKEY().
*
* Note however,
* that the <cVarName> parameter is not documented and used internally
* by CA-Cl*pper.
