Timeout for a shell command?

Currently I use a shell command to submit a curl -1 -k -d  to a server and
once every 3 to 4 days it will 'hang' waiting for a response.  There seems
to be no timeout in effect.  Obviously I would like to know if there is a
way to adjust this, since the handler will behave as though it were in an
infinite loop.

In the IDE version, cmd-period will interrupt this, but not sure what will
work in the compiled version.

OSX 10.4.4.6, Mac mini solo, Rev 2.7.2
