From 633786fea79391c9cbf0d77cc028fa5c14d76657 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samuel Thibault Date: Sun, 3 Mar 2019 18:25:57 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Reduce curses escdelay from 1s to 25ms By default, curses will only report single ESC key event after 1s delay, since ESC is also used for keypad escape sequences. This however makes users believe that ESC is not working. Reducing to 25ms provides good user experience, while still allowing 25ms for keypad sequences to get in, which should be enough.
