Changes by last author:

Added:
= abort =

== Syntax ==

:void abort(void)

== Description ==

:Causes the program to terminate processing immediately.

:All open files are flushed and closed but reserved memory is not automatically freed so this function must be used with caution when allocating memory.

== Comments ==

:Depending on why you want to use the Abort function, you might be better to use doAction(CA_CANCEL); instead.

:Abort can cause Photoshop to crash in some test builds of FilterMeister (eg FM 1.0g beta). Changing the abort_mode value in 64-bit plugins may help avoid this crash.

:When using Ctrl+F (Photoshop repeat last filter) condition is ignored with doAction( CA_CANCEL); This doesn't happen with abort( ); At least for this purpose, abort( ); seems to work more reliably than doAction( CA_CANCEL);

:doAction, abort_mode
