Tried it but nothing changed.

Looking at Debugger's methods, it appears that typing the interrupt key opens a notifier (the User Interrupt window), which gives the user the option to abandon the interrupted process. Is there a way to add a method to a program so that typing the interrupt key simply abandons the running process without the notifier opening?

Unfortunately, running HaltExperiment new infiniteLoop didn't restore the appearance of the User Interrupt window or stop Squeak from freezing even though MyToolSet has a complete copy of #interrupt:label:.
