FOCTXT - Text Input-Output Patch to FOCAL-1969
FOCAL8-248

F. R. Johnson, Dow Badische Company, Freeport, Texas

FOCAL was developed to be used as a problem solving
language. As such, input to a user program is restricted to
numeric entries. This patch allows two new functions,
FRSC(X) (Read String of Characters) and FTSC(X) (Type String
of Characters)" These functions allow the user of FOCAL to
input and output text that is not included in the body of the
user program.
