- BREAK=ON
- or
- BREAK=OFF
-
- BREAK=ON causes DOS to check for a Ctrl-Break key combination whenever it
- performs ANY function for a program. This allows you to abort programs
- that are executing more frequently than when the BREAK condition is off.
-
- BREAK=OFF causes DOS to check for a Ctrl-Break key combination ONLY when
- DOS is performing input or output to the console (screen or keyboard) or
- the printer. This limits the frequency that the Ctrl-Break key combination
- will effectively abort the executing program. BREAK=OFF is the default.
