Bug Description
Hello,
I have been able to reproduce the issue in two machines.
#byobu --version
byobu version 5.74
Screen version 4.01.00devel (GNU) 2-May-06
Install byobu, choose screen as backend and start. Then you do CTRL-a and you get offered to choose emacs or screen mode. You choose Screen mode and then you try to create another terminal, it is frozen.
I have seen that this is written in the .byobu/keybindings:
escape "^Aa"
register x "^A"
bindkey "^A" eval "process x"
If I remove this lines, then byobu offer me to choose again and it writes it again the same
I have compared with a byobu from 12.04 and this is what appears in the same file:
escape "^Aa"
register x "^A"
bindkey "^A"
It doesnt appear the 'eval "process x"'.
When I write this in the config file, everything works nicely.
Kind regards.
