That's the thing, when I hit return, literally nothing happens. I don't get the prompt that everyone else seems to get, so I'm assuming the return key is getting eaten by Helm Mode for some reason, its really weird.
Let me know how I can give some debug output, kind of clueless for this kind of thing.
