Example: The following program executes INPUT to prompt for a social security number, then extracts two
strings: the first three digits and last four digits. The level 1 argument for INPUT specifies:
 A command-line string with dashes.
 The replace cursor positioned at the start of the prompt string ( –1). This lets the user “fill in” the command line
string, using ™ to skip over the dashes in the pattern.
 By default, no verification of object syntax — the dashes make the content invalid as objects
