What's Wrong?

I got the following error message while running /compact:

Error: Error during compaction: Error: Conversation too long. Press esc to go up a few messages and try again.

Pressing esc (once) does not do anything.

What Should Happen?

The error message should specify pressing esc twice:

Error: Error during compaction: Error: Conversation too long. Press esc [twice] to go up a few messages and try again.

Pressing esc twice actually opens up the "Rewind" menu to go back in the conversation history.

Error Messages/Logs
