About once every day or two I "crash" my epoch session by getting the
cursor stuck in column 1.  (Or is that column 0?)  This happens
whenever you respond to a y-or-n-p prompt by saying "Gosh, I don't
want to do that" and typing ^G.  I know, I shouldn't do that, but I
often do.  Then I have to quit epoch and restart.

Does anyone else get this behavior?  I think I've posted about this
before, but I've never seen a response.  Maybe the message didn't go?

I can't find any reasonable way to catch the problem.  Any hints?

... well, not every day, but once or twice in week, yes. You are not
alone and this is (apparently) not one one of these "But it works for
me!" errors, where the maintainers cannot reproduce it. But I never
found out what provoked this misbehaviour...
