While <condition>
Description
Conditionally returns execution to its matching Do command, effectively creating a loop, depending on the value of an expression. The condition is run through a math calculator. If the result is zero, execution continues after the While command; otherwise it returns to Do. A command blocks must be used between the Do and While, which begin with a { and end with a }.
Examples
Declare Count int 1
Do
{
Echo ${Count}
VarCalc Count ${Count}+1
}
While "${Count}<10"
