   WAIT KEY OR FIRE { ( [port] ) } { RELEASE }

This instruction allows you to wait for the pressure of the FIRE key on the joystick or any key from keyboard. If the port number is not indicated, it means the first available (the one with index 0). If the keyword RELEASE is appended, the instruction will wait for the release of the key / fire button, as well.
