Another way to check for any key being down is:
command runTheLoop
repeat forever
if the keysDown <> empty then exit repeat
-- do what you want
end repeat
end runTheLoop

Hi Tim
it depends of the kind of loop you are using. Several possibilities
For example in a card script:
local stoploop
command runTheLoop
repeat forever
if stoploop = "S" then exit repeat
-- do what you want
wait 10 milliseconds with message
end repeat
end runTheLoop
on keyDown thekey
put thekey into stoploop
end keydown
The "wait x milliseconds with message" is the important trick here.

If it is not relevant which key is being pressed, then a tad simpler
variation is
command runTheLoop
repeat forever
if the shiftkey is down then exit repeat
-- do what you want
end repeat
end runTheLoop
It could also be altKey/optionKey or controlKey/commandKey instead of
shiftkey.
