gEDA-dev: PCB command line repeat execution bug

Bug discovered in PCB version 1.99s
When using "ESC" key to exit the command entry mode, the last command
executed in command entry mode gets repeated.
Correct action would be to close command entry mode without doing
anything.
For example, how I discovered it:
Invoke "pcb --listen" so I could test some commands from STDIN.
Open the command entry mode in PCB (GTK HID), from "Window -> Command
Entry".
Enter the (bogus) command ":foobar", where the stdout gives:
"unknown action `:foobar'"
Open the command entry mode again from "Window -> Command Entry".
Press "ESC" to close command entry mode
stdout now repeats, "unknown action `:foobar'", presumably as PCB tries
to execute my last command again.
Bug also occurs when using ":" key to open the commnand entry mode.
Also, where has the handy command reference gone?
Regards
Peter Clifton
