Description

|
-----------
|
|
|
|
``break`` halts a currently running loop, such as a :ref:`switch <cmd-switch>`, :ref:`for <cmd-for>` or :ref:`while <cmd-while>` loop. It is usually added inside of a conditional block such as an :ref:`if <cmd-if>` block.

There are no parameters for ``break``.

Example

The following code searches all .c files for "smurf", and halts at the first occurrence.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
for i in *.c
|
|
if grep smurf $i
|
|
echo Smurfs are present in $i
|
|
break
|

end
