in reply to Curses::UI - How to set escape delay?

You can set that with an environment variable. Adding the following line near the start of your script seems to work for me.

$ENV{ESCDELAY} = 3000;

    Thanks. Well it seems there's no other alternative to set_escdelay...

      Is there a particular reason why you want an alternative method?
