       @fribbledom - joe, because I have learnt the WordStar keybinding is 1990s using Turbo/Borland Pascal/C IDE and other DOS editors using the same layout...I know the CP/M lineage of WordStar is perhaps not as cool, as the Unix retro of vi, but I started on 8bits and PCs, and only discovered Unix when it was too late.
