Stopping a SKILL script

Is there a way to terminate a lengthy SKILL script without having to kill the Cadence process?

    My experience is that control-c will do the job in between skill commands. However, if you have a command like dbGetTrueOverlaps that is taking a while to run because it was given too much area, the control-c will not work until that particular command completes. As long as your skill code is progressing from one command to the next the control-c works just fine.
