How to do a goto with Applescript

Hi from Beautiful Brittany,

OK, so it is off-topic, but ....

I wrote my first programs in Algol and especially
Fortran, when Do (repeat) loops used i, j, k variables.
And the code DID execute faster, and these variable
names were used by all - early 60's (too soon for many
of you to have even heard of these programming languages).

In my LiveCode (Runtime Revolution) programs that I
write today, I still use i, j, k variable names (in my
repeat loops ONLY), even if I am convinced that it makes
absolutely NO change to program execution.

And I know that I am not alone !

Old habits die hard .......

-Francis
