Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently if a program is looping infinitely, there is no way to stop it from executing without also terminating the repl.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice for control-c to pause the execution of the program on the current instruction.
Describe alternatives you've considered
our current alternative terminates the repl, which also would terminate the program, however this is not the best way to handle programs which loop infinitely.
