If my computer had a break key, I would have done the same thing to avoid cluttering the final image with text. So this dummy is on the side of that dummy. As long as the computer of the day had a "break" key. So programs as per the machine and BASIC of the day, I say.
Aside, BASIC Anywhere Machine version of one Fedora Hat program:
view the source code
run the program
(I love it when older BASIC code works without too much futzing.)
