I have made the following blunder a couple of times. I go to open a file in textMate using File->Open and am in column view. I accidentally double click on the folder instead of single clicking. In list view or icon view this would just open the folder and go to the next level. In column view this actually opens the folder in textMate. If you are unfortunate enough to do this at low enough a level, textMate will then start scanning the entire folder hierarchy. I seem to remember seeing a command that would stop this process. I searched the archives of the list, but apparently I didn't on the right word choices.

Currently I just force quit textMate and start over. I just wonder if there is a better way.
You've probably seen someone suggest `killall TextMate` or something like the following
kill `ps aux | grep TextMate | grep -v grep | awk '{ print $2 }'`
Which are just the cli way of issuing a force-quit basically.
