SKIP

Format:    SKIP [(label)] [BACK]
Template:  LABEL,BACK/S
Location:  Internal 

SKIP is used in scripts to allow you to skip ahead in the script to a (label) defined by a LAB statement. If no (label) is specified, SKIP jumps to the next LAB statement.

SKIP always searches forward from the curent line of the file. However, when the back is used, SKIP starts searchin for the label from the beegining of the file. This allows SKIPs to points prior the skip comand.

You can only skip as far back as the last execute statement. If no execute statements are used then you can go back as far as the begining.

Example:

.key IF exists (name) SKIP message ELSE ECHO "(name) is not in this directory" QUIT ENDIF LAB message
