list of keybindings to implement. this is a pie-in-the-sky feature request
from a geeky developer.


_ general (easier to support)
_ ctrl-space to set selection start
_ selection end is just wherever the cursor is after selection set
_ esc-w to copy (clears the mark)
_ ctrl-w to cut (clears the mark)
_ ctrl-y to paste
_ ctrl-up arrow for next empty line up
_ ctrl-down arrow for next empty line down
_ ctrl-left arrow for prev word
_ ctrl-right arrow for next work
_ ctrl-a start of line
_ ctrl-e end of line
_ home/end are beginning/end of document (not line)
_ inline search (ouch)
_ ctrl-s to search inline
_ ctrl-r to search inline backwards
_ esc-% for query replace
_ then y for replace, n for no, ! for all
_ file i/o (ouch ouch)
_ save ctrl-x-s
_ open ctrl-x-f
_ save as ctrl-x-w
_ buffer (tab) movement
_ ctrl-x-b (switch to another tab)
_ ctrl-x-k (close.. not in p5? maybe make this hide tab?)
_ window stuff (probably not)
_ ctrl-x-2 split window
_ ctrl-x-o switch windows
_ ctrl-x-1 single window
