Cancel a repeat with a button

[Stephen Cox]

Why not? You checking a global variable. He said it would take a while to
complete. And I'm assuming he's running the loop in the background.

User presses cancel button, setting the global variable to True

In the loop, last statement checks the variable (it's global so the code
will see it).  If True, exit (or whatever cleanup he has, then exit).
