I'd love to learn that there's a way to get this to work in all
cases, but I've only found Ctrl+C to work when the script is directly
invoked by a "Command". Things like backtick shell expansions in
snippets don't appear to be listening...
I hadn't realized there would be much controversy that this was an
opportunity for improvement in TextMate's architecture. Is there a
way to cancel any kind of shell command spawned by the application?
Am I also the only one annoyed by the current Undo implementation?
