A clean way to exit your script could be to raise an exception. It

If you prefer to only retry a finite number of times:
for i in range(10):
try:
run_script() # May raise TryAgain
break
except TryAgain:
pass
else:
# break skips past the for...else block
raise GiveUpError('too many failures')

Hi,
Thanks for the ideas, I haven't tried them yet.
I wonder if they will work in a multi-threaded fashion.
I doubt it.
The run_script runs in it's own thread.
The exception would have to be raise from another thread. (The other thread
check for errors and needs to abort the run script).
I doubt thread B can interrupt thread A via exceptions/exception handling
?!?
Bye,
Skybuck.
