Thank you, I did discover C-g -- I also bound [escape] to the same thing (as follows) because of my existing habits:

(define-key minibuffer-local-must-match-map [escape] 'abort-recursive-edit)

However I notice that I reflexively use backspace to exit the minibuffer -- rather than unlearn, I'd like to teach Emacs to obey ... Is there a convenient way?

Thanks!

behaves? (I'm learning Emacs and Evil at the same time ...)

Thanks!
