Of course, you could always use it to set some global variable, such as
CtlBreakPressed := true, or such, which is easy to test per some loop.

 DB>  getint($1B, real_break); {Get pointer to the old interrupt}
 DB>  setint($1B, {at}My_Break);  {Set the interrupt to a procedure}
 DB>  Do_whatever_you_want_here;
 DB>  setint($1B,Real_Break) ; {Don't forget to reset it before you exit}

Indeed!  This suggests maybe setting up an ExitProc for safety, too.

PS: thanks for the VP demo.  Not half bad, eh?  I've only played with the
examples so far, but am quite impressed.  I should check SpeedPascal too ..

Cheers, Ian
