Rebooting is a bit drastic; can you not kill j from task manager?
Beyond that, break _should_ work. I can look into making it a bit more responsive for long array operations, but am curious to know what specifically has caused you trouble.

Hi! Is there any way to avoid the situation whereby by error I put J into an infinite loop from which the only recovery is to reboot my Windows laptop? I guess that my erroneous routine is locking the CPU to such a such an extent that I can’t even get to run Jbreak. I quite often receive a recoverable situation when a limit has been exceeded but if I get the infinite loop situation I have lost my entire session and have to start again. I really need a global setting which limits the amount of cpu usage and aborts a function before it gets out of hand.
