I remember programs that ask every time when one want to cancel edit or something else and have not answered to the question from the computer : save / do not save / cancel. When one click on another icon the computer is still waiting until you click on one of the possibilities the computer ask (that is what he do) to the user (save /do not / save). In some cases when one want to close a program the computer ask : do you really want to close the program?. In the early days when I was in a computer club and discussed with programming friend we made sometimes jokes about this issue : how many times must you ask the user what he want to do, if he really want to do that, if he sure he isn't make a mistake to do something, is it sure he isn't wrong, and so on.... As a programmer one have always to consider how to use the tools in a program the easy way. As PixLab mentioned : in the time one developed a computer keyboard to conversate with the user one have discovered the need of a 'escape' button : very useful in several situations. In gimp one can also use : 'Edit / Undo' to undo a manipulation. Found on : https://teluguone.com/comedy/content/fun...29358.html
