This is not comparable. Exit was escape from loop without control
expression, loop with control.
Now, when mixed syntax switch and any while/for we still heve LOOP
inside switch, but EXIT no longer.
EXIT in the sense : escape from a loop.
In this case word Exit important changes.
My example for workaround :
Local lExit := .f., i := 1
While !lExit
... // designate i
Switch i
Case 2
... // designate lExit
Loop
Case 3
...
Exit
Case 4
....
End
End
Hm, maby this is ok.. In C is to only break and continue.
