Hi,
I tried to find the theorem whose name is left_neutral so opened the Query dialog and wrote
name: "left_neutral"
Now the star-shaped widget beside the Apply button runs infinitely showing that the system works.
Is the above query wrong? And, how could I stop this thread and start a new query?

This "spinning disk" icon can actually have various different states.
The tooltip tells more, e.g. it could be "Waiting for evaluation of
context ...". Sometimes there is just a user confusion about that.
Nonetheless, there could be a genuine problem, e.g. a deadlock. If such a
problem is recurrent, it usually helps to look very closely what really
happens, and tell me about it. People have also made informative
screencasts, leading to successful improvements of the situation
eventually.

The query is OK. If it were somehow malformed, there should be an
explicit error.

It is unrealistic to manage threads manually -- the system mainly works
with future tasks anyway. The Monitor panel might provide some clues what
the system is up to, but it is also hard to interpret the situation.
