How can I break out of a series of commandline commands from within
the commandline?

Here is my command line, it finds the text "XXXX" and replaces that
text with an incremented number (variable i) up to the max replacement
value of 3999.
:let i=1120|%g/XXXX/s/\zsXXXX\ze/\=i/|let i=i+1|if (i > 3999)|break|
endif

Everything works great except for the "break" statement.  When the
"break" is hit it generates an error since break is only intended for
use with a while statement.  I've tried putting the "<Esc>" text in
place of the break statement, I've tried inserting a ctrl-c in line...
and I can't make any of them work.
