Bug Description
I added a line to the sudoers file with "sudo visudo"
when I exited vim, I was presented with this options menu, but never
saw a message that the config I wrote is corrupt! I ignored the DANGER
because I *asumed* (my bad) that the authors are paranoid about saving their config file.

(I ran a which openocd command from vim, thus the next lines)
[No write since last change]
/usr/bin/openocd
Press ENTER or type command to continue
(editting... :wq)
What now?
Options are:
(e)dit sudoers file again
e(x)it without saving changes to sudoers file
(Q)uit and save changes to sudoers file (DANGER!)
