Well I was working on labyrinth you see and I accidentally got myself stuck in a repeat loop. I would normally just stop it with option but it doing and alert how do I save myself from this indefinite alerts?
I must be dreaming (wake up me wake up) How could this have happened. Tireas' cry when he found his computer fallen over in his chair with it's screen shattered.

I tried this code

REPEAT
  ALERT test
END REPEAT

and holding down the option key while pressing the OK button in the alert stopped the program. Does that not work for you?

It didn't so I ended up force quitting. And beside the code was more like this:

Undercard Loop Script
ALERT

Oh. It was in a loop script. The option key won't work for that. I didn't think of that. Hmm.

Well maybe you should think of some sort of fix for that in the next version.
