I have a problem with a specific file when loaded into LinuxCNC Axis GUI.

I created the file on one comnputer and copied it to the one with CNC.

The original file had an error. I fixed it on the other computer, but, did not copy it to the CNC computer. DUH!

The file causes LinuxCNC Axis to go into a loop, being non responsive to the keyboard and mouse. The cursor changed into a watch face, indicating AXIS was busy.

What does AXIS do when a file is opened, but, not run?

The file:
========================================================
( cut a slot )
#1 = 5
o100 while [ #1 gt 0 ]
  g91
  g1 z -0.010 f3
  g90
  g1 x 1.7250 y 0.2125
  g3 x 1.7250 y 0.2875 i 0 j +0.0375
  g1 x 0.3500
  g3 x 0.3500 y 0.2125 i 0 j -0.0375
o100 endwhile
M2
========================================================

Note the missing loop counter adjustment.
    #1 = [ #1 - 1 ]

It appears that AXIS is simulating the file, or something.  But, what?
