Hi,
Is there a more elegant way to exit this repeat loop? Less than two lines?
Looking for a way to exit a long "System Events" repeat loop in case
of a problem.
repeat with index from 1 to the 10
set optionDown to testOption() -- line 1
if optionDown then return -- line 2
beep
delay 1
end repeat
on testOption()
if (keys pressed) contains "option" then
beep 2
set optionDown to true
return optionDown
else
set optionDown to false
end if
end testOption
Tia,

As usual I got several good answers. Results;
repeat with index from 1 to the 10
if testOption() then return
beep
delay 1
end repeat
on testOption()
(keys pressed) contains "option"
end testOption
Turns out I didn't ask the right question.
That repeat loop is inside another one, and this only quits the
inside one. Is there a simple way to quit the script?
