For loop variables are special cases, and always have been. They're not true variables, in any case. Try assigning to them, for instance.

That's often bitten me, because if i am looping to scan thru a sequence of stuff, backing up or making another pass thru the same subsequence should be as easy as manipulating the loop variable. Cannot do this in Eu.

To be more on-topic of this thread, I considered a "until" to be a "goto" or "exit" or "escape" or "jmp". In this sense, "until" is part of the body inside the "loop-end_loop" construct.

useless
