Couldn't help playing with MP's coding, this version returns T if the "Y" key is pressed or NIL  if the "N" key is pressed.

Code: [Select]
(defun YesNo ( prmpt / GetKey response )
  (defun GetKey ( / result )(while (null (eq 2 (car (setq result (grread))))))(chr (cadr result)))
  (princ (strcat prmpt ", Y/N: "))
  (while (null (member (setq response (strcase (GetKey))) '("Y" "N"))))
  (princ (strcat " <" (if (eq "Y" response) "Yes" "No") ">."))
  (eq response "Y")
)

;  example:   (if (yesno "Shoot?")(prompt "\nBANG")(prompt "\nDOH!!"))

EDIT: Question changed.

Here is another:

Code: [Select]
(if (not *YN*)
  (setq *YN* "Yes")
)
(initget 0 "Yes No")
(setq P
       (cond
((getkword
    (strcat
      "\n Do you like donuts (Y\\N) <Hit Enter for "
      *YN*
      ">: "
    )
  )
)
(*YN*)
       )
)
(setq *YN* P)

And yet more fun (on the fly dcl) --

Code: [Select]
(defun GetYesNoCancel ( title question / _MakeDcl _Main )

    ;;  returns 1 for yes, -1 for no, 0 for cancel (you
    ;;  could mod to return nil for cancel if you prefer)

    (defun _MakeDcl ( / tempname handle )
        (cond
            (   (setq
                    tempname (vl-filename-mktemp "ync.tmp")
                    handle   (open tempname "w")
                )
                (foreach stream
                   '(
                        "yesnocancel : dialog {\n"
                        "    key = \"title\";\n"
                        "    label = \"Yes / No / Cancel\";\n"
                        "    spacer;spacer;\n"
                        "    :   column {\n"
                        "        :   text {\n"
                        "            alignment = centered;\n"
                        "            key = \"question\";\n"
                        "            label = \"xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx\";\n"
                        "        }\n"
                        "    }\n"
                        "    spacer;spacer;\n"
                        "    :   row {\n"
                        "        spacer;spacer;\n"
                        "        :   button { label = \"Yes\"; "
                        "key = \"accept\"; is_default = true; }\n"
                        "        :   button { label = \"No\"; "
                        "key = \"no\"; }\n"
                        "        :   button { label = \"Cancel\"; "
                        "key = \"cancel\"; is_cancel = true; }\n"
                        "        spacer;spacer;\n"
                        "    }\n"
                        "    spacer;\n"
                        "}\n"
                    )
                    (princ stream handle)
                )   
                (close handle)
                tempname
            )
        )
    )
   
    (defun _Main ( title question / _Action dclname dclid result)

        (defun _Action ( argument )
            (setq result argument)
            (done_dialog)
        )

        (cond
            (   (and
                    (setq dclname (_MakeDcl))
                    (< 0 (setq dclid (load_dialog dclname)))
                    (new_dialog "yesnocancel" dclid)
                )

                (vl-file-delete dclname)
                (set_tile "title" title)
                (set_tile "question" question)
                (action_tile "accept" "(_Action 1)")
                (action_tile "no" "(_Action -1)")
                (action_tile "cancel" "(_Action 0)")
                (start_dialog)

                result

            )
        )
    )
   
    (_Main title question)
   
)

Example --

Code: [Select]
(GetYesNoCancel "Question of the day" "Is this superfluous?")

i am appreciative of the input and i thought i could handle it from there. but i havent been able to put it to use. here is my go at it. could someone point me in the right direction.
Code: [Select]
(DEFUN c:Yesno (/ ansr)
    (INITGET 0 "Yes No")
    (OR (SETQ ansr (GETKWORD "\nAre you sure? [Yes/No] < Yes >: "))
(SETQ ansr "Yes")
)
ansr
     (if (= ansr yes)
(setvar "osmode" 1)
     )
)

ansr is a STRING .. so ..
Quote
    (if (= ansr "Yes")
      (setvar "osmode" 1)
     )

.. or considering the context of your sample, perhaps something like this ..
Quote
(DEFUN c:Yesno (/ ansr)
    (INITGET 0 "Yes No")
    (IF (= "Yes" (GETKWORD "\nAre you sure? [Yes/No] < Yes >: "))
        (SETVAR "osmode" 1)
    )
)

Kerry, with this, if enter is hit, then the osmode won't get set.  That is why I usually test for the answer that is not the default, so something like
Code: [Select]

(DEFUN c:Yesno (/ ansr)
    (INITGET "Yes No")
    (IF (/= "No" (GETKWORD "\nAre you sure? [Yes/No] < Yes >: "))
        (SETVAR "osmode" 1)
    )
)

Edit:  Oops, didn't see the bit code 0 of the initget.  Sorry.

Perhaps try something like  this
.. note also the square brackets around the options ...  try a right click to display the popup options menu when the command is running, you'll see the options displayed .. which you can also click ..
Quote
(DEFUN c:Yesno (/ return)
    (INITGET 0 "Yes No")
    (OR (SETQ return (GETKWORD "\nAre you sure? [Yes/No] < Yes >: "))
        (SETQ return "Yes")
    )
    return
)

I just wanted to second that about using the square brackets for your prompt.  In the newer versions of Autocad, Autocad uses those square brackets to determine the available choices for the Dynamic Input prompt.  It also pays attention to those angle brackets, for the "default".  For example, in the following:

Code: [Select]
(initget 128 "Current Jump Options")
(setq sel
   (getpoint
(VLutil:getPointAtDist e curDist)
(strcat
"\nEnter end elev <"
(rtos CogoPtLastEl)
"> or pick grd brk "
"[Current elev/Jump to point/Options]: "
) ;_ strcat
   ) ;_ getpoint
) ;_ setq

Say the value for CogoPtLastEl is "2600.00".  The above code will result in a Dynamic Input prompt composed of a list that contains the following choices:

Code: [Select]
* 2600.00
  Current elev
  Jump to point
  Options

The "2600.00" will be flagged as the "current value" in the list.
