Hi,
Really, I don't remember when I used control-period successfully for the
last time. Whenever I need to to stop an indefinitely running loop, I
have to kill the entire IDE.

To break into your loop so that an external control can, er, take control,
add this line as appropriate inside your loop(s):
wait 0 with messages
This will let the handler look outside itself for a brief instant, so that a mouseUp
message can be generated by that "cancel" button.
You do know that cmd-period will abort any running hsndler, right?
