INKEY$ doesn't work with fixed length strings
#19
The project standard has always been heavily weighed on maintaining QuickBASIC compatibility. The way around such issues is to create a new keyword that differs in action, much like _KEYHIT vs INKEY$.

I vaguely remember once having an issue with a very early QB64 version where my QuickBASIC program ran correctly on the previous version but not on the next update. The update was reworked to make it compatible again. There is something, much more recent, that I also can't recall completely, where a change in something, I think involving functions, was made. I believe there was some disclosure, in that build or the wiki, to that effect. I complain here about old age, but I can't remember what century I was born.
