is greater than the number of enclosing loops, the outermost enclosing loop shall be
exited. Execution shall continue with the command immediately following the loop.

RATIONALE


In early proposals, consideration was given to expanding the syntax of break and continue
to refer to a label associated with the appropriate loop as a preferable alternative to
the n method. However, this volume of POSIX.1‐2008 does reserve the name space of command
names ending with a <colon>. It is anticipated that a future implementation could take
advantage of this and provide something like:

outofloop: for i in a b c d e
do
for j in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
do
if test −r "${i}${j}"
then break outofloop
fi
done
done

and that this might be standardized after implementation experience is achieved.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS


None.
