dbx + breaking out of loops
When debugging using dbx, is it possible to break out of finite loops ?

If so, what command should I look at to achieve my goals ?

regards

If it's a finite loop then there will be a loop condition that you should cause to evaluate to zero by setting appropriate variables.
