This timeout is defined by the tt(KEYTIMEOUT) parameter; its default is 0.4 sec. There is no timeout if the prefix string is not itself bound to a command. +The key timeout is also applied when ZLE is reading the bytes from a +multibyte character string when it is in the appropriate mode. (This +requires that the shell was compiled with multibyte mode enabled; typically +also the locale has characters with the UTF-8 encoding, although any +multibyte encoding known to the operating system is supported.) If the +second or a subsequent byte is not read within the timeout period, the +shell acts as if tt(?) were typed and resets the input state. + As well as ZLE commands, key sequences can be bound to other strings, by using `tt(bindkey -s)'.
