I tried this out, using the vile.exe in cmd.exe ans see the same error.  When
I entered :q in vile.exe the 'q' appeared in the command window at the bottom
but it never went away.  It actually looks like vile.exe tries to exit but has
no success because vile.exe still shows up in taskmanager.

Killing vile.exe in taskmanager leaves cmd.exe with what appears to
be vile.exe still running and hitting CR in cmd.exe seems to not do
anything.

I had to kill cmd.exe.
