:Read enough characters to consume a multi-key sequence such as those defined for keys like Home and End. Such sequences begin with a Control Sequence Indicator (CSI), usually ESC-[.

In either case, the line is accepted as if a newline had been typed. The default value of comment-begin causes this command to make the current line a shell comment.
