Best way to stop an event sequence

[Sannyasin Sivakatirswami]

I have some CD's that use the "bad" technique "repeat until the mouse is down" to "stop" a show (variety of sequenced events) and allow the user to proceed to the next card... a "skip intro" strategy. I really didn't know what I was doing and just "made it work" (nearly three years ago now...) But sometimes I get really weird behavior from that....

Anyway, would like to start fresh:

Assume on the title card of an interactive presentation, the open stack handler triggers a "runsShow' handler that initiates a variety of events/sequences, Title Text moves in, images start appearing, fading, start a music player, credits are rolling in a field, very wide images in the back are moving slowly left to right etc. some of these are done with repeat loops and some with "send in" and there are some "wait" built in and you want the user to be able to just stop all that.. and go to the next card which is static. What is the best technique for this kind of thing? I think the repeat loops are the biggest problem with my old way of doing it.

Hope that is not too vague.. a general example of "the best way" would suffice.
Thanks!
