Think you should look for exception handling.
I do not use anything that looks like a "continue" and "break" as i gener=
ally=20
avoid loop in my code and i do not think there is any.

break:
try
  for ... do
    raise End_Loop
  done
with End_Loop ->


continue:
  for ... do
try
    raise Next_Loop
with Next_Loop ->
  ....
  done

But please, for my soul sake, avoid such things unless you do really need=
 an=20
exception

--=20
Ciao
