Hangs when $DISPLAY not reachable

[peacememories]

First of all thanks for developing this great vim alternative! :)

This problem might need some explaining, so here goes.

I've been using amp happily on Ubuntu for Windows for the past few weeks, but recently I couldn't start it anymore. when I opened amp the terminal would freeze. Now it so happens that in the same time I installed X410, an X-server for Windows, and added a script which would set $DISPLAY to the correct value (which is an ip address, since wsl2 needs to connect externally to x410).
When X410 is not running, amp tries to connect to the ip (see stacktrace below), but obviously does not manage to make a connection. The timeout for this seems to be around 30 seconds, so it seems like amp just completely hangs for that time.

I'm not sure what the best way to "fix" this would be. maybe shorten the timeout, or try the connection in the background, or allow me to specify that I do not want to connect to X. Also what I've noticed is that not even ctrl-z or ctrl-c would be able to kill amp in this situation.
