The forum is locked. These are the original blitzbasic.com forums, kept so they can still be read. No new topics, replies or edits can be made here. To join in, head over to the Blitz3D+ forums.

In other words: it's too fast to read or even see it, it ends before you can see it (or before the monitor was refreshed). So, yes, use waitkey()

print "test"
print "press any key to end this app"
waitkey()
end
