The in command prompts for input from the terminal and places it in the secondary input buffer. Contents of the secondary input buffer are destroyed and the buffer pointer is set to the beginning, prior to placing data in the buffer. Leading and trailing blanks are removed and embedded blanks are replaced with a single attribute mark.
