There is no clean way to stop the simulation before it hits nstlim,
you have to kill it with kill -9 <pid> or something similar. Be aware
that if you happen to kill the simulation in the middle of a
trajectory write you could end up with a partial frame at the end, but
even worse if you happen to kill the simulation in the middle of
writing a restart you will not be able to restart the simulation, so I
would be very cautious in attempting this.
