I have tried using M-x kill-compilation and it doesn't kill the process (on Microsoft Windows). It just sends ^C, which makes my script to retry.
When I try to M-x kill-buffer on the compilation buffer it kills the process and closes the buffer.
I want the process killed without closing the compilation buffer. How do I send a stronger kill signal in my compilation buffer?
helm-list-emacs-processwhich lists all the process and then I can kill it. It might be useful to bind it to something. – Vasantha Ganesh K Feb 7 '19 at 12:24helm, the built-in method to list Emacs process is withM-x list-processes. However, that will not list processes running in the background (outside of Emacs). – lawlist Feb 7 '19 at 14:46procedfor that. – user12563 Feb 7 '19 at 17:00
