Control-C should work on every operating system. Obviously you have send
the Ctrl-C to the Python process, not some other application. E.g. if
you are running your program in a terminal window, bring the terminal
window to the front so it captures keystrokes and type Ctrl-C.
If you have to kill the Python process from outside, use your operating
system's standard method for killing processes. E.g. on Windows you
would type ctrl-alt-del and then select which process to kill from the
dialog box. On Linux you would use the ps and kill commands.
At least on Windows Vista ctrl-alt-del brings up a list of options, one
of which lets you bring up the Task Manager to kill the process and/or
application. ctrl-shift-esc brings up the Task Manager directly.
