[erlang-questions] using ctrl-g in emacs in erl

[James Aimonetti]

Do you have Distel mode installed/enabled? I do, if that makes a difference.

(emacs@REDACTED)1> 1+1.
2
(emacs@REDACTED)2> 2+2.
4
(emacs@REDACTED)3> ^G

User switch command
 --> q

Process inferior-erlang finished

That's what happens when I use Ctrl-q Ctrl-g <Enter> and use 'q' to quit the
shell.

This is GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (GNU/Linux x86_64), but I know this sequence has worked
for me for several previous versions of emacs as well.
