Is there any way to break out of the sleep command using a keystroke? Can
filepro catch keystrokes when in sleep and act on them when sleep timer
ends?

I don't believe it can but you can always sleep for a second and then poll
the keyboard with the a=inkey command.  If  len(a)="0" and @sk=""  go back
ans sleep another second.  Otherwise break out and continue with what you
want to do.
