30.2. $abortProgramExcpt

$abortProgramExcpt is a predefined exception that is raised to abort a program. $abortProgramExcpt is registered (with $registerException) at the start of a MAINSAIL execution, so it can be raised by giving an appropriate reply to the errMsg Error response: prompt. It is handled by falling out of the handler by MAINEX, MAINEDIT, MAINDEBUG, and other system programs that operate as command interpreters, and should be so handled by user programs that allow the invocation of arbitrary MODULEs. $abortProgramExcpt basically means to abort the current program and return to the level of command interpreter from which it was invoked.
