When using Vim I sometimes find myself midway through entering a key combination and change my mind or realise it's incorrect (I'm still learning).
For example I may have typed d, 4 and be about to press d in order to delete 4 lines and realise this is not what I want to do. How can I abort the current sequence of keystrokes?

To abort a ping session, type the escape sequence (Shift, Control, and the 6 key, all at once). Another useful command that you can use when troubleshooting connectivity issues is the debug ip icmp command.
it's ctrl-shift and 6 (not F6).
A break signal enables you to access a ROM Monitor on Cisco IOS® devices when a password recovery is necessary.
To stop the traceroute process, enter Ctrl-C.
Ctrl+C also aborts the current command.

I prefer CTRL+[ over escape at all times, including aborting the current command. It's quicker and easier to type, particularly if you remap caps lock to ctrl.
