How to exit qemu in an ESP-IDF?

Question

I started the qemu using idf.py qemu monitor command. I tried to terminate it with CTRL+C to interrupt the process but it didn't worked. What is the proper way to exit qemu in ESP-IDF?

Answer 1

In this case, qemu is launched by the IDF Monitor. Therefore, the keyboard shortcuts of the IDF Monitor must be used:

• First press CTRL + T menu escape key
• Then press X to exit

PS: The case of the letter makes no difference.
