esc-level Command

The esc-level BASIC program specifies that pressing ESC pushes a level. The esc-level command uses the set-esc command to enable the special escape key. Without any argument, the usual escape value (x'1B' or 27) is assigned to the level pushing function. The optional argument defines an alternate value.
