Details:
so there is this old_esc_mode option ...
it really needs some more exposure. in fact, it should be enabled by default,
and the timeout should be lowered from one second to at most 100 ms (that is,
virtually instantaneous).
high-latency network links should not cause problems, as the chars of one
keypress should still be in one packet, keeping the sequence intact. if there
really is some problem with this, the patch posted by denis vlasenko on
2004-10-25 to make the timeout configurable via an environment variable can be
used.
