  • The LOOP Loop:
    • In NeXtMidas 2.5.0, the LOOP command was added for compatibility with X-Midas.
    • The X-Midas LOOP is similar to the NeXtMidas DO loop but with fewer features.
      • A LOOP in X-Midas can be translated to a simple DO loop in NeXtMidas without loosing any functionality.
        In X-Midas:
        LOOP count index
          ...
        ENDLOOP
        
        In NeXtMidas:
        DO index 1 count 1
          ...
        ENDDO
