h for left, j for up, k for down, l for RIGHT!?!?. Really mnemonic names,
those. Almost as slick as zilch, which uses u for down.  Being of the emacs
religion, I won't mention the multitude of missing features that editors
really need; I'll just pray that I never, ever have to use the rand editor
if what you say about it is true. Sounds like it could actually be *worse*
than scope.
