SYNOPSIS
       continue
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________


DESCRIPTION
       This  command  is  typically  invoked  inside the body of a looping command such as for or foreach or
       while.  It returns a TCL_CONTINUE code, which causes a continue exception to  occur.   The  exception
       causes the current script to be aborted out to the innermost containing loop command, which then con-tinues continues
       tinues with the next iteration of the loop.  Catch exceptions are also handled in a few other  situa-tions, situations,
       tions, such as the catch command and the outermost scripts of procedure bodies.
