Expand description

Default escape-sequence timeout.

When the pending buffer holds a partial ESC-prefixed sequence or 8-bit C1 introducer and no continuation arrives within this window, the source asks the decoder to resolve the buffered bytes as best-effort events. This is how a physical Escape key is distinguished from an Alt-prefixed key or CSI-style control sequence.

Applications that prefer more responsive Escape handling can lower this value with EventSource::with_esc_timeout; applications that need to tolerate slow byte delivery can raise it.
