Erm . . .
So what is the difference between:
on mouseUp
repeat with x = 1 to 20
--do something
end repeat
end mouseUp
&
on mouseUp
put 1 into x
repeat until x > 20
--do something
add 1 to x
end repeat
on mouseUp

a way that makes reasonable sense ...
Predict the result of the following loop and
remove or not the "shiftkey-exit":
on mouseUp
repeat with x = 1 to 20
-- add -1 to x -- not recommended
add -4/3 to x -- not recommended
put x into fld 1
if the shiftkey is down then exit repeat
end repeat
end mouseUp
"step" is especially useful in that you can do
rather `complicated' subdivisions in a very simple way:
on mouseUp
repeat with x = 1/13 to 1-1/13 step 1/13
put cr & x after s
end repeat
put char 2 to -1 of s into fld 1
end mouseUp
To the *precedence* of step in the repeat syntax see also:
