PLAY                     Enable/Disable Music Trap                  Statement

 PLAY {ON | OFF | STOP}

    Enables or disables the ON PLAY trap.

          ON    PLAY ON enables checking of the background music buffer.

         OFF    PLAY OFF disables checking of the background music buffer.
                This is the default condition.

        STOP    PLAY STOP inhibits trapping. QuickBASIC continues checking
                the buffer, and if the notes remaining are fewer than
                specified in the ON PLAY statement, a subsequent PLAY ON
                results in an immediate trap.

   -----------------------------------------------------------------------

      Notes:    If the "Checking Between Statements" option is in effect,
                QB checks for communication activity after each statement.
                If the "Event Trapping" option is selected, QB checks
                after each new program line. If neither option is
                selected, no trapping takes place.

                For command-line compilation, /v enables checking after
                each statement, and /w enables checking after each new
                line. If neither switch is used, no trapping takes place.
