Removing {ENTER} from screen display of echo

[David McFarlane]

Just repeating what I posted earlier today at 
http://support.pstnet.com/forum/Topic3368-5-1.aspx :

Could you just remove the offending terminal character with a bit of 
inline script, e.g., assuming your stimulus is called StimSlide,

Dim xString as String
xString = Left$( StimSlide.RESP, (Len(StimSlide.RESP) - 1) )

? Please see the online E-Basic Help for more info on the Left$() and 
Len() functions.
