Thu 05 May 2016 07:21:01 PM UTC, comment #1: The bug is even worse: when you try to abort the search with a quick ^X ^X ^X and then sit and wait, you can wait forever. Because the finding of multiple keystrokes in the input buffer has made nano go into delay mode -- it mistakenly does not restore the correct mode reading in the available keystrokes into the keybuffer. Which means that after three seconds, when nano has eaten all the ^Xs, nano sits and waits for more input in the middle of the search loop. :| |

When you try to abort a search in a huge file with a quick succession of five time ^X, say, and then remember to use ^C instead, it will take something like nine or ten seconds for the ^Xs to be "eaten" before finally the ^C is seen and the searching is cancelled.
