Hi all,

Is there a function in the macro language that will just abort a macro, equivalent to pressing escape key.  I have a radio button dialog and there a few options for the user to choose from and i wanted one of those to be an option to exit the macro.  I see there is a run("Quit") command but that quit's imagej and is a little extreme.  Something like run("Abort") would be nice but alas obviously doesn't exist.  Alternatively some way to make the macro jump over my remaining code blocks if this "Exit" radio button is selected then it will end on its own.  I've roughly copied the structure below to demonstrate what i'm trying to do.

Thanks for the help!

Matt

Radio button dialog options:
-Append results and next image
-Skip image
-Exit

if "append" {
statements
}

else if "skip" {
statements
}

else {
Exit macro somehow
}

Further code blocks associated with a loop outwith the above code
