FALLGUY()

    FALLGUY() displays a character string by "dropping" it from the top
    row of the screen (row 0) until it reaches the specified row. The
    syntax is:

    FALLGUY(<row>,<column>,<message>,[<delay>])

    Required Parameters

    <row> is a numeric expression representing the final row at which to
    display the message.

    <column> is a numeric expression representing the column at which to
    begin the message.

    <message> is the character string to be displayed.

    Optional Parameter

    <delay> is a numeric expression representing the delay factor to
    introduce into the scrolling process.  Values between 10 and 100 are
    recommended, although you should experiment to determine what works
    best on your particular computer.  If you do not pass this parameter
    or pass a zero, a series of high-pitched "twinkle" tones will
    accompany the falling process.

    Return Value

    Nada

    Sample Usage

    FALLGUY(23, 10, 'The sky is falling!!')            && with sound   
    FALLGUY(23, 10, 'The sky is falling quietly', 50)  && without sound
