Hello Rob,
I tested the following program, using Eu 2.5 alpha on Windows 98.
include get.e
procedure ignore(object x)
end procedure
puts(1, "Press any key ...")
ignore(wait_key())
It ran as expected when interpreted with ex.exe and exw.exe, when
compiled with DJGPP as a DOS program, and when compiled with Watcom
as a Windows program.
When compiled with Borland as a Windows program, it also works fine
with most keys, but when I press [Enter], I have to press another
key thereafter (either [Enter] again or any other key), in order
to terminate the program!
Regards,
Juergen

Yes. The need for two Enters with Borland was reported before.
I haven't figured out how to fix that.
