Describe the solution you'd like?

Command Dot / Command Period (Cmd-. or ⌘ .) is a handy alias for Control - C (⌃ C or Ctrl-C to terminate running program) in the stock macOS Terminal, which I would also like to see in Warp.

Research direction

The issue specifies Cmd-. as a macOS Terminal alias for Ctrl-C in Warp, but names no files, tests, or implementation entry point. Start by locating macOS keyboard handling and the existing Ctrl-C termination behavior. Done means Cmd-. terminates a running program the same way as Ctrl-C, with a corresponding test if the relevant test area exists.
