Hi,
sometimes I'm in the situation that I accidentally pressed a key, which
results in a prompt (examples are save-message, change-folder, ...).
Normally the prompt already shows a default value.
How can I escape from that prompt easily? I know I can delete the
default value and press enter, but is there an easier way. The most
intuitive way would be to press ESC, but that doesn't work.
