A smooth way to end that command is to hit q (for quit). It looks like it is viewed with the viewer less; it may be using a less-related library.
You can quit from this command and several other text mode programs with q. In this case and several other cases you can also quit with the ctrl C interrupt, but it is 'more brutal'.

Read man less. In the Description section, it says:
The output is paged through less by default, and long lines are "truncated" to screen
width. The hidden part can be viewed by using the left-arrow and right-arrow keys. Paging
can be disabled; see the --no-pager option and the "Environment" section below.
So, you should read man less to learn about this useful tool.
