You can use ctrl+z to exit a program. But with this it will be still running in the background i gues. You can kill this program by kill command. Search the running program by the command

ps -ef|grep -i "your_program_name"

It will give a list of background running program with your program name. In that list 2nd column represent the pid id of your program. You can kill the program using this pid with below command.

kill -9 pid_id

Hope this helps
