This article discusses how to a compile that is in progress when using the Programmer's WorkBench (PWB).

 Under MS-DOS (or the OS/2 3.x compatibility box), use CTRL+C to abort. Under OS/2, use &quot;Arg Meta Compile&quot; to abort a compilation taking place in the background.

The default keystrokes for Arg Meta Compile are ALT+A F9 CTRL+F3.  You can also create a macro and assign it to a key to abort the compile process. Below is a sample macro that you could place in your TOOLS.INI file under the [pwb] tag. [pwb] Abort:=Arg Meta Compile Abort:Ctrl+F5 

NOTE: In either OS/2 or MS-DOS, the ESC key will not abort a compilation.
