MATLAB: How to run a while loop until esc is pressed

Question

I need to run a loop that reads data off a serial port until i want to break it. i am using: {while true out = fscanf(obj); data_vec = sscanf(out,formatSpec, [1,130]); [w_vec,acc_vec] = IMU_DATA(data_vec); W = [W,w_vec]; ACC = [ACC,acc_vec]; end} I was wondering how can i use a callback function to stop the loop when i hit the esc key, without using ctrl +C?

I, the author of stoploop, suggest the function STOPLOOP: https://uk.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/20455
