After hitting ctrl+g, it can take some time for a response so it's not clear if anything is happening. Suggestion is to show a progress bar to indicate something is happening but may take a few seconds.

Here's how it looks in PS7:

Is it possible to improve how it looks in PS5, e.g. positioning the banner close to the prompt? here's a test with PS 5.1:

psprogress

The banner is always at the top of the screen:

psprogress2

@dluc unfortunately, WinPS made a design decision to always have progress on top and isn't something that can be changed w/o changing powershell.exe

I ported this to not rely on python for PowerShell, so you can try that https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/Codex/0.1.0-Beta (although progress is the same...)
