HELP SYSREPEAT Mark Rubinstein May 1985. sysrepeat(integer, procedure); SYSREPEAT is a procedure for calling the "repeat" syntax, so that sysrepeat(5, vedcharup); is equivalent to: repeat 5 times vedcharup() endrepeat; SYSREPEAT could be defined as (see SHOWLIB * SYSREPEAT) define sysrepeat(number, action); repeat number times action(); endrepeat; enddefine; This can be useful if you want to make a closure of the procedure, for example: vars charuptimes; sysrepeat(% vedcharup %) -> charuptimes; See also HELP * REPEAT and HELP * CLOSURES.
