60) TIN (Input with Timeout)

Function: TIN waits for a digit code or a timeout, and then modifies the program
execution sequence.
Argument
[Integer]
Explanation: TIN behaves like a FIN command where the only "function key" allowed is
the timeout - "function key" 20. The least significant digit of the argument ("N") is still
used as in the INPUT command, but the whole argument is used to specify a timeout
period, expressed in tenths of a second. Thus, an argument of 278 specifies a 27.8
second timeout and sets "N" = 8. The maximum timeout period is 10,000 tenth-seconds.
If a response is not received before the timeout period expires, a pseudo-function key
response is generated internally and the player process it just like any other function key
response. Thus, TIN will only wait the specified amount of time for an input, then
processing will continue (skipping (N+1) blocks of code).
Thus, there should be one BRANCH instruction following TIN for each of the N "allowed"
viewer inputs, and one additional BRANCH for the "Other" inputs. Then, as with the FIN
command, the following code is for the timeout condition.
