stop-process

Abort the concurrent process.

Ctrl-C Ctrl-C

This command makes a concurrent process (see start-process) believe that you typed Ctrl-C (or, for Unix, the interrupt key).

Under Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista, providing a numeric argument makes this command send a Ctrl-Break signal instead of the usual Ctrl-C signal. Under Windows 95/98/ME, providing a numeric argument makes this command try to force the current process to exit, instead of sending a Ctrl-C character. A numeric argument has no effect under Unix.
