I think I either don't understand the problem properly,
or else RT heard you and corrected the problem already.
When I tried to do
f: does [print "Hello" for i 1 10 1 [exit] print "You won't see this"]
and run it, it exits f properly.
I am assuming that in an old version it would
exit the for loop and keep running, so that
the user would in fact see:
>>f
You won't see this
Is that the case?
If so, RT has fixed it in my View and Core,
which are 09931 and 23031 respectively.
I may be all wet here, but if they have fixed it,
it is probably in part due to your hard-won research
and reporting of the problem.
