[xmonad] Issue 421 in xmonad: Xmonad.Prompt: add a timeout?

Status: Accepted Owner: nomeata Labels: Type-Enhancement Component-Contrib Usability New issue 421 by nomeata: Xmonad.Prompt: add a timeout? http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=421 A user of the Debian package reported the following issue (http://bugs.debian.org/603769) Hello, There should possibly be a way for the user to configure a timeout in the prompt module. There could be times (like when xev or xkeycaps is running) when none of the escape/quit keys for the prompt would work. In this situation, a timeout would save the user. Regards, Kapil.
