You can accomplish this by writing at any point in the program:

serout 16, baud, [noparse][[/noparse]"Press any key to continue", cr]
serin 16, baud , [noparse][[/noparse]com]

Once the program receives any byte it will continue on its way.

Is there a way to step through Pbasic code a line at a time? Is
there a way to do this such that you can look at the status of the
pins on the stamp while you step? Alternately is there a debug
that will allow you to halt the program to wait for a keyboard
entry? I am looked in the book and haven't found it.

Thanks,

Yes.
MyVal VAR BYTE

SERIN 16, 16384, [noparse][[/noparse]DEC MyVal]

The BS2 will wait until you type a number
into the 'terminal' window with this line.
