Mike, that did the trick. I'll get into the same coding habit.

Thanks!

If the loop is tight enough, the keypress never gets through.  I've just
got into the habit of putting an escape hatch into loops that can go wrong.
Something like:
if the environment is "development" and the shiftkey is down then exit to
top
(or if you want the user to have access to the same exit, don't check for
the environment)

Then all you have to do is hold shift and the loop will exit.

The documentation says Cmd + . should stop a running script.

I have    set the allowinterrupts to true  in my openstack script. But if
I get into a long repeat loop, cmd + . does not stop anything.

Community v8.1, OSX 10.9.

Any advice appreciated.
