Yes, eshell definitely needs more documentation.
But simple usage should be, well, simple. For instance, to find a
word in a file, type
grep word file.txt
at the shell prompt, just like you would with another shell.
The result will be quite different, though ;-) That is the beauty
about eshell...

Hm. If C-c C-c (which is like Ctrl-C in a "normal" shell) doesn't
stop the program, then perhaps C-c C-z (which is like Ctrl-Z in a
"normal" shell) can interrupt it. After C-c C-z, you can use the
usual "kill %1" thing to kill the process.
Does this help?
