title: How to Stop Watching File Changes
body: <p>I have the following in my package.json file</p>
  
  <pre><code>  "scripts": {
      "babel": "babel es6.js --watch --out-file es6-compiled.js"
    },
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I can watch files via</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ npm run babel
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What I haven't figured out yet is how to STOP watching files.</p>
  
  <p>So I've been running CTL-C to break out of watch, but that cant be right.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any official way to stop watching files?</p>
  
  <p>thanks</p>
