Skip(V1.3) ARP User's Manual Skip(V1.3)
NAME
Skip - Skip to the appropriate label.
SYNOPSIS
Skip LABEL BACK/s
DESCRIPTION
Skip moves the currently executing script file ahead until
it finds a lab declaration which matches its own argument.
If Skip is used without an argument, it looks for a null
Label.
To Skip backwards in a file, you use the BACK keyword.
If at any point in its search for a label Skip encounters
the EndSkip command, it will abort the Skip and return an
error of WARN.
Note that Ash (the ARP Shell) contains this command as a
builtin.
EXAMPLE
Skip Dodah ; skip to Lab Dodah
By using the idiom "Skip ?", you can request a user to give
you a label, and jump to that portion of the batch file.
SEE ALSO
Ash Manual
CAUTION
With the ARP V1.3.0 version of SKIP, you should NOT
indent a "Lab" statement or that label will not be found.
