Far Better Keyboard Support
The cursor ("selection") can be moved using keyboard commands (a la the `WordStar Diamond`_).
A keyboard command (ctrl-k) is provided to jump between the command window and the current file window.
+ Various other commands are also available for keyboard binding.
These commands are configurable at compile time (and more commands are in the works).
Support for Two-Button Mice and Wheel Mice.
