Re: Need Some Help Figuring Out Why 'M-x insert-kbd-macro' Doesn't Work With Helm Mode For Some Reason

[Samuel Banya]

That's the thing, when I hit return, literally nothing happens. I don't get the 
prompt that everyone else seems to get, so I'm assuming the return key is 
getting eaten by Helm Mode for some reason, its really weird.

Let me know how I can give some debug output, kind of clueless for this kind of 
thing.
