Try with :q (I agree that the help menu is not clear enough thought)

using latest (0.20.5) and wow is it not obvious that you have to enter command mode... you press ? without any modifier, it says to quit, should quit! or make it much clearer...

In the help page, <q> is shown exactly like the other keyboard bindings, but only works as a command. There is nothing saying that it's a command, and not a keybinding, and if it's a command it doesn't make sense that it's surrounded by angle brackets. This has to be a bug? Either that it doesn't work as a key binding, or that it is documented as a key binding rather than as a command.
