no need (I wrote the related code)

it's probably in the yes/no prompt code (a "key y" and "key \n" might fix it)

Look for uppercase "QUIT", in src/LYKeymap.c

Basically all of the single-keystrokes are mapped into commands which can be
typed by entering ":" first.  I implemented the ":" prompt to be like vi/ex, so
I could add other commands which did not happen to be bound to single
keystrokes.
