In the latest canary build, the escape key no longer performs the desired behavior (like exiting a mode in vim). I believe this is mapped to the close() dispatcher.
I dug around and I think it has something to do with this commit or some commit around that time.
If I switch back to the stable release, the exit button works.
Let me know if you'd like me to provide any other details or dig a little deeper.
Cheers,
Morgan
It also happens with Linux OS (Ubuntu 19.10) and with the latest canary build
Use Ctrl+[ like a champ instead! =)
Yep, it's happening to me as well.
And me
Can confirm also MacOS catalina doesn't work. Can confirm that <Esc> works in regular terminal, so it's a hyper-specific issue
This was fixed in #4407
Try a newer build (e.g. https://github.com/zeit/hyper/actions/runs/77488656)
Reply if you face some issue.
As the current canary build is broken, I'd propose doing a new canary release with the fix included.
New release might take some time, you can use the build from CI.
@LudwigThePig
Were you able try out the ci build?
Can confirm it works again on the latest CI build.
Works for me after fresh download

@LudwigThePig can you also try it and close this issue if everything's good.
Fixed it for me too!

@LabhanshAgrawal This is still broken on the latest canary (3.1.0-canary.4) on macOS 11.1 - is canary release blocked? There hasn't been one in 11 months.
For now, Ctrl+[ is a workaround. Edit: there's also a config-level fix proposed here: https://github.com/vercel/hyper/issues/3929#issuecomment-694653861
keymaps: {
'editor:break': 'esc',
},
There're some issues blocking releases, you can get the ci build from https://github.com/vercel/hyper/actions/runs/461548454
