Stopping #REPEAT
|
Just wondering if theres any way to manually stop the #REPEAT command before it finishes looping the specified number of times
Theres a few places where ive used it for some complex but repetitive sets of tasks and then found myself almost paralysed when an emergency happens due to having to wait for it to complete |

| Code: |
#repeat 5 {#say %i;#abort}
|
stopped after only printing 1 for me.. *shrug*
then I further tested..
| Code: |
#repeat 5 {#say %i;#if (%i=2) {#say pretest;#abort;#say posttest}}
|
and it printed
1
2
pretest
3
4
5
so I looked at the help file.. and VIOLA
| Code: |
#repeat 5 {#say %i;#if (%i=2) {#say pretest;#abort 1;#say posttest}}
|
1
2
pretest
so try #abort 1? seemd to cancel everything going on..? not quite sure what lengths it goes to. |

#ABORT
By itself will stop the *current* script. So you see in your first example the #SAY posttest doesn't happen as the abort stopped that script.
#ABORT 1
This stopped *all* scripts so the repeat queue of commands was halted.
//
Syntax: #ABORT [flag]
Aborts further parsing of the current command line. Commands after this on the same line are discarded. Aborts processing of current program block.
[color=red]If the flag is present and non-zero, all active scripts are aborted instead of just the current program block.[/red] |

To manually stop the current script, I press the Escape key.
