Interrupting shell-command

[August Karlstrom]

Hi,

Does anyone know how to interrupt a command invoked with the function 
shell-command?

When I type ! in dired-mode on a directory and type then 'ls -lR <RET>' 
I can stop this recursive listing with C-g.

When I do 'M-x shell-command <RET> ls -lR <RET>' I can stop this too 
with C-g.

This won't work when you make the shell command an asynchronous one, 
one which ends in & and is executed in the background without 
connection to a terminal (tty). This one can only be stopped with 'kill 
<pid>.'

Without vi there is only GNU Emacs

OK, thanks. For some reason I never tried `C-g', the most obvious 
keyboard command in this situation.

`C-c C-c' is undefined by default. As far as I know, keyboard commands 
starting with `C-c C-' are (meant to be) mode specific.
