However if you have something like this:

on mouseUp
  repeat
    answer "Hey there!"
  end repeat
end mouseUp

you might as well force-quit. ;-)

I think what I have is closer to this, and force quit is the only option.
But you know, in HyperCard I think that command-. stopped the program, even
if a dialog box was showing. There should be a way out, other than force
quit.

Same with SC. While it may not be desirable to have that behavior for all apps you build with Rev (can you imagine a user shutting down program execution by just typing Cmd-. in any other app? Ewwww), it might be nice to have a global propery which governs this, perhaps one which is set to true in development mode by default false by default at runtime.


If you post it to Bugzilla I'd vote for it.

The cantAbort property governs whether an interrupt will generate an error message.

What's needed here is the ability to cancel an Answer dialog with Cmd-.
I don't think cantAbort currently affects that behavior, does it?
