What does one do in Squeak to stop an infinite loop?

If one takes a flying leap at it and:

1) hits anything inside the Smalltalk window nothing happens.

2) hits Ctrl-Alt-Del enough times, selects Task Manger then stops Squeak

then next time it opens it says it can't write to the changes file until this is fixed [ok]

How does a beginner fix that?

As a somewhat not brand new beginner, I recall Dolphin Smalltalk has a panic button for this.

Does Squeak have anything except trying to file out one's code, delete and reload Squeak?

Thanks.

Re: Panic

Hi,

Alt + . (Alt key and simultaneously the . key) usually brings up a
debugger.

Cheers,

Herbert
