About break
Break can be used to enable or disable the breaking
capability of the computer. For
example, if a user wanted to cancel a batch file or another MS-DOS processes,
that user could
simply press CTRL + C (break), which would then prompt the user if they wish to cancel the
current process.
Turning break off will cancel CTRL + C; however, the user will still be able to press CTRL
+ PAUSE/BREAK and have the capability of getting out of a batch file / current running
process.
Note: Newer versions of Windows (Windows ME, Windows
2000, Windows XP, and higher) only include this command for
backwards compatibility and turning the break off has no
effect.
