[plt-scheme] looping?

You can implement what are you looking for with macros and recursion. There
are some existing macros on PLaneT---look at control.plt

In this specific case, a Schemer would probably write:

(let loop ()
 (if (something-is-done)
     'end
     (begin (do-something)
               (loop))))
