I don't believe you should attempt to run break from J. Instead run it from Windows, eg Start menu, or assign key there.

In jijs.ijs I've added a line to verb JIJS: menu break "Break" "" "" "" ; and then, at the end of the script jijs_break_button =: 3 : 0 wd 'winexec "c:\ProgramFiles\j602\bin\jbreak.bat"' ) Then, when I click on the new Break item on the menu, a little dos window appears and disappears, so it looks as though it's running correctly. But when I try to stop a loop for keyboard input, using the prompt verb from misc, nothing happens. When I manually run jbreak.bat from a dos session, then I get a keyboard interrupt in my J session. So my question is: is this expected? That is, should I be able to set up a menu item to run the jbreak.bat function so that it will interrupt keyboard input correctly? And if so, how? Finally, I've tried repeatedly to assign this to a key sequence eg F2. In my j session after I've done this, hitting F2 runs the dos box, as with clicking on the menu item. However, when I exit j and try to restart it, I get an IDE error (Error and no IDE window for debugging) and j wont start. If I remove the assignment from SKEYS in config.ijs, eg SKEYS=: 0 : 0 break F2 ) j starts up correctly. Any ideas? Thanks! ------------------------ Philip A.
