After managing to get a program stuck in an infinite loop that ctrl+alt+del couldnt kill, i was just curious about any possibility of a ctrl+break equivolent for FB? If it exists already, please lemme know!
Ctrl-Break only exists in QB because it is an interpreter. You cant include an escape set in a compiler, it really isnt good practice.
And surely you could just use the close button, couldnt you?
Of course, that's rather stupid of me - you shouldn't put the escape in a finished program...
And no i couldnt click close
Ctrl-Alt-Del can work as your escape keys

Sounds like you need Windows XP. Oh and CTRL+BREAK works perfectly for me. :wink:
i have windows xp, ctrl+alt+del didnt work, neither did ctrl+break - i had to restart the pc
Stay away from my computer! jk :lol:
What did you get the infinite loop from?
Code:
PRINT "HELLO"
DO
LOOP
Don't even start okay?
SHUTTUP!!!
Mind if I roll on the floor from laughter? :rotfl:
You did that infinite loop on purpose didn't you. It'd be kinda hard not to. Oh and if you want it to pause, try this:
Code:
DO
LOOP WHILE INKEY$ = ""
I KNOW HOW THAT WORKS!!!!!!!
!!!!
I was ASSUMING that i could just CTRL+BREAK out of it.
And yes yes I know what ASSUME means...
