Of course i have searched already the internet, and, of course i have found the answer that i have to kill the minibuffer with "^]", but, of course, this command is not working. Does anyone knows the answer, i have to exit emacs which looks very stupid to other colleagues, which are using Microsoft Word and so on. regards
