PROMPT/A
<nowiki>
PROMPT - Text (question) to display.</nowiki>
Ask displays a question and waits for an answer.
This answer can be 'Y' (Yes), 'N' (No) or nothing (ie: user simply
pressed [return]). If user answers nothing, Ask will consider the answer
as being negative. To indicate to other commands the answer received,
Ask will set the condition flag to a specific value (see IF command):
if the answer is No, the falg is set to 5 (WARN), 0 Otherwise

Example:
<nowiki>
SYS:> Type my_batch_file
Ask "Do you own a Pegasos ? (YES/NO) "
If Warn
Echo "You answered Yes."
Else
Echo "You answered No."

SYS:> Execute my_batch_file
Do you own a Pegasos ? (YES/NO) yes
You answered Yes.
SYS:></nowiki>
