repeat ... until block?
Am I being thick, or is there no block that implements a repeat...until (do...while, whatever you want to call it) construct?
Just a break statement would do it ... although if you'd rather not implement that for stylistic reasons, I can understand that.

Re: repeat ... until block?
You're right, there's no "repeat until" block and it would be useful. It's on our short list of features to add so it will probably make it into the next version of Scratch. The next release will come out in April.

Re: repeat ... until block?
As you suggested, it is possible to use a "break," which is called "stop script" in Scratch, to do what you're asking. This code should simulate a do-while (or repeat until) loop for you
Let me know if that is helpful for you, or if I missed the point of what you were asking.

There are 10 types of people in this world: Those who understand trinary, those who don't, and those who think this is the same old signature.
