Hi @sanketjain544,
In general you can abort any process in the Terminal by pressing ctrl-c or sometimes ctrl-z

Hi @sanketjain544,

Thanks for letting us know and welcome to the Community!

I apologize for this error. It’s a known stubborn bug of the terminal and we are working on fixing it.

Please click on the reload simulation :arrows_counterclockwise: button at the top right corner of the simulation window to reload the shells. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Hi @ramku31, welcome to the Community!

Apologies for the error! We will look into this. In the meantime:

  • Please avoid using man ls.
  • If the shell hangs again, please just change to a unit that uses a different simulation and then change back.

Hi @ramku31,

the problem has finally been “solved”.

If you now type the man command, you will just get the following message:

Please, see man reference in a new tab: https://manpages.ubuntu.com/

Thanks for reporting the problem.
