Can I press Ctrl-C now or it hasn't finished?

I've been waiting on this screen for the past 2 days.
Should I stop it because it has finished compiling or not?

Looks like it's hung up.
Can you look at the warning without closing the terminal?

Oh really strange stuff, I've got the exe built in the dist folder, and it is runnable.
But this screen never stops.
Should I kill this anyways....
Thanks

Do you have a way to see what is active on your system, like a form of system monitor which shows sleeping, zombie, or active.
Sometimes items would show as yours, root or all.
What happens if you minimize the window and reopen it, does a prompt show?
If you look at the line(s) you used to compile the code did you add anything which would make a scroll command necessary, or a page command like |more?
Additionally, is there a number of lines limit or size limit set on your terminal, and do you have a "scroll on output" feature to the terminal?
