; keyword input:  
;   up
;     if set, don't return until a upward button transition is
;     detected.  This is useful when pause is used between plots which
;     draw quickly.  Setting this keyword ensures that no plots are
;     skipped but also requires that each new plot be accompanied by a
;     downward and upward button transition.  The default is to skip
;     to the next plot as long a mouse button is pressed down.

; output:         none
;
; PURPOSE:
;     Momentarily stop execution until a mouse key is pressed.  While
;     in the paused state the cursor is changed to what looks like an
;     arrow pointing down on a button.  When any of the mouse buttons
;     are pressed the cursor returns to its original form and
;     execution continues.
;     
;     PAUSE will only interrupt execution if the output device is 'X'
;     and plot system variable !p.multi(0) eq 0.  The first condition
;     disables PAUSE when output is directed to a postscript file.
;     The second condition ensures that pauses occur only just before
;     the screen is erased for a new plot.
;     
;     NOTE: After PAUSE returns to the calling program different
;     actions can be performed depending on whether the left, middle
;     or right mouse button was pressed.  Just test on the !err system
;     variable: !err=1 => left !err=2 => middle !err=4 => right.
