Stop Sublime Text from executing infinite loop

Question

When I do something like

while True:
    print(\'loop\')

and execute that code in sublime I am not able to stop it. I have to manually kill

Answer 1

You want to use Ctrl+Break. For your own information, just go check under Tools in Sublime Text and you'll see Cancel Build and the above hotkey. It'll work just fine for infinite loops. Suffice to say, I've had the same happen! ;)

For Windows users, there is no Break key, so go into Preferences>Key Bindings and change the line

{ "keys": ["ctrl+break"], "command": "cancel_build" }

to a different shortcut, such as Ctrl+Alt+B
