Cancel in Command line

How can i type cancel in command line.

In macros we use ^C^C. when i type this in command its invalid.

Is there a way??

Thanks

 

please don't x-post.

 

Maybe because ^C in a Windows environment is expecting something to be copied? Probably works in macros because you're in a different environment level.

The ESC key works pretty well on the command line.....

 

If your going to type the keyboard anyway, just hit the "ESCAPE" key. Or as in my case, I made a button to "deselect all". Use this command ^C^C^C^C^P(ai_deselect)^P^M;

 

In many cases, a return will terminate a command which is waiting for a
response. In all cases, escape works.
