Bug Description

I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 (intrepid), Release 8.10 (intrepid), Kernel Linux 2.6.27-9-generic, GNOME 2.24.1.

If I open vi from the terminal applet, I am unable to close vi once I type 'i' to insert.

In order to use the terminal applet again, I go to awn-manager and deactivate the terminal applet and activate a new one.

I'm using version 0.2.6.

Ctrl - C does not work here, and it is not a solution because by pressing Escape key doesn't mean I want to exit vi, maybe I just want to save the file and then continue editing it
