To allow the use of a joystick by enabling or disabling the trapping of its buttons.
STRIG(n) ON
STRIG(n) OFF
STRIG(n) STOP
n is 0, 2, 4, or 6, corresponding to the buttons on the joystick, where:
- 0 is button A1
- 2 is button B1
- 4 is button A2
- 6 is button B2
STRIG(n) ON
Enables trapping of the joystick buttons. After this statement is executed, BASIC checks to see if this button has been pressed before executing following statements.
STRIG(n) OFF
Disables BASIC from checking the state of the button.
STRIG(n) STOP
Disables trapping of a given button through the ON STRIG(n) statement. But, any pressings are remembered so that trapping may take place once it is reenabled.
