How to terminate a program running from the Sublime Text 2 terminal once entering an infinite loop?

Question

Even If I close sublime the process continues to go, seeing as my laptop revs until slowing down to a crawl a few minutes later. I'm on mint linux, and can't seem to kill the process from terminal either.

There is no reason why you could not kill the process from a terminal. Can you please show the process listing using ps and tell us how you tried to kill it. — Mikko Ohtamaa, Feb 11 '13 at 13:55

Execute this command:

ps -A | grep sublime

result Example :

2547 ? 00:02:37 sublime_text

You will kill process with :

kill -9 2547

This is happening to me also in Ubuntu. I tries to kill it with the ID like you have suggested. But still it is here. When I run ps again it is still there with same ID – Happy Coder Sep 12 '13 at 08:52
I am also getting it like that. Any one have any idea how to kill it. ? because one instance is running, I am not able to open sublime again, – Happy Coder Oct 04 '13 at 08:41

One simple and brutal way is to just kill the process of what the program is running on. For example, if you are running a java program, then use $killall java.

On MAC:

First of all you have to kill process and then remove all sessions

1) kill -9 $(pgrep Sublime)
2) sudo rm /Users/YOUR----NAME----HERE/Library/Application\ Support/Sublime\ Text\ 3/Local/Auto\ Save\ Session.sublime_session
