16 This command is typically invoked inside the body of a looping command
17 such as for or foreach or while. It returns a TCL_BREAK code, which
18 causes a break exception to occur. The exception causes the current
19 script to be aborted out to the innermost containing loop command,
20 which then aborts its execution and returns normally. Break exceptions
21 are also handled in a few other situations, such as the catch command,
22 Tk event bindings, and the outermost scripts of procedure bodies.
