*** INTERRUPTED ***
If the user presses ESC during command or program execution, processing completes at the current program line, and an alert appears with the following three options:
  • (Default) Choose Cancel to immediately stop program execution and return to the Command window.

  • Choose Suspend to pause program execution and return to the Command window. This option is useful for debugging a program. Choosing Resume from the Program menu or issuing RESUME in the Command window restarts the program at the line at which it was paused.

  • Choose Ignore to continue program execution at the line at which it was paused.
