How to stop AngularJS tutorial web server

Question

Following the AngularJS tutorial on docs.angularjs.org I started the simple webserver I started the web server in web-server.js just to test it, and to try Node for the first time.
I used it for a bit to view a few files and directories and then I wanted to stop it. And realised I didn't know how.

Please help, just closing the Terminal window (yes, I have a Mac OS X 10.6.8) and stopping all processes manually just doesn't feel right and I think there should be another way.

While Control+C is used to kill a process with the signal SIGINT, and can be intercepted by a program so it can clean its self up before exiting, or not exit at all.
