You didn't say how you want to get out of the loop, but...
Here are three possibilities:
repeat while true
-- Make sure you have a way to get out! This will go on forever
repeat with thisItem in myList
-- do something with thisItem
end repeat
end repeat
Or this variation:
repeat while true
numElements =count(myList)
repeat with x=1 to numElements
-- do something with myList[x]
end repeat
end repeat
Or this way:
index =1
numElements =count(myList)
repeat while true
-- do something with myList[index]
index =index + 1
if (index > numElements) then
index =1
end if
end repeat
They're all more or less the same thing. The first one doesn't give you
access to your current index, though - that's all.
