Being new to Emacs, it often happens to me that I press some key combination and then, seeing the preview with which-key of how the key combination should finish, realize that I made a mistake somewhere, and I want to use none of the combinations shown.
Is there a way to then cancel a partially completed key combination? I usually end up pressing ESC, in the hope that there is no combination that ends in ESC (which sometimes is not true). Is there a better way?
abort-recursive-editintuitively in that situation. As I use Caps Lock for this command I can be sure, that no other command will be invoked when I use my personal binding.
