Interrupting a wait loop
Interrupting a wait loop

In my Applescript app a wait loop gets a wait time from the GUI
interface. I usually set this to 60 minutes. Every 60 minutes, code
executes. When code finishes, the wait loop serially checks the time
to see if 60 minutes have passed, executing the code again if so.
The problem is, I can't change the interface elements during the wait
loop. So the only way I can quit my app or discontinue the wait loop
is to "Force Quit." This gets tiresome after a while.
There is bound to be a better way to introduce a delay of 60 minutes
between code executions, which would allow me to access my interface
during the wait loop. Please help with suggestions in this regard.
