I was wondering if the 'No' button could be bound to the escape key for the popup box that appears asking if you would like to replace typing.

Also, I noticed the Keyboard Preference option(under Input -> Commands) for Save Deleted Command doesn't seem to save the command when going through the replace typing popup box, although it does work when you hit the escape key. I would like if this could be considered for adding so that commands replaced by the popup would be saved as well.

Yes that is a bit annoying, I have a choice of dialog boxes:

Yes/No - where you can type <enter> or "N" or

OK/Cancel - where you can type <enter> or <esc>

It seems to me that Yes/No is a more logical set of buttons to a "yes/no" type question, however it is annoying that <esc> isn't taken as No. You can always just hit the "N" key.

It it really annoys a few people I can do a custom dialog box which will say Yes/No but accepts <Esc> as No.

I'll look into the other issue.

I agree it is annoying, I've changed it to OK/Cancel, not Yes/No. Hopefully it isn't too confusing. Now <esc> will work (but not "N").

Also, if you say OK, then the command is now saved in the command history buffer, if that option is on.
