Summary: Emacs-style key bindings?

Initial Comment:
   The default key bindings in Dr. Java appears to be

based

on Windows editing commands.  It would be nice to use

"emacs-style" key-bindings for those who are more

familar with UNIX environemnt. While the key-bindings

can be reprogrammed to behave like emacs, I wonder if

that could be a "mode" (thus, you click the button, and

it reassigns the keybindings appropriately) for emacs,

so that it wouldn't require someone to rebind all the

keys.



   Occasionally, emacs allows for multiple bindings for

the same operation, which Dr. Java doesnt seem to

permit.I dont know if that would unnecessarily

complicate the way Dr Java works.
