   In this case Lightbar/Grid doesn't use the ESCAPE hotkey as Grid menus use   
   command jumps based on certain keys and ESCAPE is one of them.  These are   
   defined in the "GRID MENU JUMPS" section when editing a menu command.   
      
   Within a grid menu if you wanted to have ESCAPE jump to a menu when escape is   
   pressed on menu command #1, then you would edit menu command #1, set the Grid   
   escape jump to itself (01) and then in the "Action List" section you would   
   create a menu command that executes only when ESCAPE is placed:   
      
       Command: GO   
          Data: main   
    Grid Event: Escape   
      
   This means whenever escape is pressed when menu command #1 is highlighted, it   
   will jump to the main menu.   
      
   Grid menus are meant to give you a ton of control but they are a little more   
   complex/confusing to use.
