That's the whole idea of this command - to get "stuck on" READ EVENTS, and continue processing user input.
Your main program should have three parts:
1. Setup code
2. Your main loop - this is the single command, READ EVENTS!
3. Cleanup code, that runs when the user quits the application.
You break out of READ EVENTS with the command CLEAR EVENTS; typically, this would be invoked from the "File | Quit" menu command.
