I often use ido to complete outline paths in org. It works well, but
sometimes it takes a very long time. But ^G does not stop it.
The computer grinds to a slow. top says that Emacs is taking half of
CPU and Safari is taking the other half. So it's in a tight loop (and
so is some advertisement on Safari, probably).
I was hoping that ^G would stop anything that emacs does.
GNU Emacs 22.2.1
Carbon
Are there any signals I can send to make it stop without crashing?
Thanks.

Jason et al. 2006) and severe suffering (worse than nearly all other
diseases studied; e.g. Schweitzer et al. 1995) and *grossly*
corrupting science.
