I showed the one without the early stop because you complained that
bubble sort needed the early stop flag. It can be done without, but
using one will add 1-2 lines (depending on how you count significant lines).

Here are the 3 sorts we've been discussing (in my script language but it
will do the job of pseudo-code, however bsort/isort assume 1-based
lists). I've removed blank lines to make them easier to compare. I
understand the insertion sort could be written more succinctly but this
is what I've been using:
proc bubble_sort(a)=
repeat
sorted:=1
for i to a.len-1 when a[i]>a[i+1] do
swap(a[i],a[i+1])
sorted:=0
od
until sorted
end
proc insertion_sort(a)=
for i:=2 to a.len do
value:=a[i]
holepos:=i
while holepos>1 and a[holepos-1]>value do
a[holepos]:=a[holepos-1]
--holepos
od
a[holepos]:=value
od
end
proc quick_sort(a)=
i:=ll:=a.lwb
j:=rr:=a.upb
pivot:=a[(ll+rr)%2]
repeat
while pivot>a[i] and i<rr do ++i od
while pivot<a[j] and j>ll do --j od
if i<=j then
swap(a[i++],a[j--])
fi
until i>j
if ll<j then quick_sort(a[ll..j]) fi
if i<rr then quick_sort(a[i..rr]) fi
end
