Thanks Henning! To repeat: if you run a program with an infinite loop
with Ctrl+R (or toolbar button) you can kill it by pressing Ctrl+R
again. If you load an infinite loop in the shell there is no way to
kill the program.Therefore all programs should be run with Ctrl+R and
only small, safe code snippets should run in the shell as they block
SPE during execution.That's why students should use Ctrl+R.

This is confusing, you can not kill the shell. You can kill scripts
running with Ctrl+R
