Interesting. So you put a series of commands one after the other on the same line of code with no delimiters?

No, sorry, that was me not formatting properly with my comments.

Each statement would be on a separate line:

    @ x, y say "First name"
    @ col2, y get first_name
    @ x, y+2 say "Last name"
    @ col2, y+2 get last_name
    read

I see. So that would generate a form that you could tab around in and enter data into?

Yes. Going back to the top or confirming tha data when exiting the last field was a setting. You may have multiple commands on one row but you have to separate them with a ;
