I am trying to test for an input line to determine if there is anything
being passed back to the program.

I thought I could use something like

if           dname = *blank
eval         *in20 = *on
endif

But unfortunately putting the *blank in there always fires.  I believe it
happens when you have a 25 character line and not all of the positions are
filled.

Suggestions?
