You should open source it. I find it interesting that there is so little exploration of how an editor should work outside of the emacs and vim models. It is like those are the only two possible ways.

In my head that's pronounced like, "Yowie!" I was just wondering how you pronounce it.
It's spelled 'aoeui' but it's pronounced 'Throat-Warbler Mangrove'.

I thought it would be 'luxury yacht' ;)
Good name for a Dvorak optimized editor
aoeui ~ qwerty (but on a different row)

There is third model in GUI apps: ^C copy, ^V paste, ^S save, ^F find, ^H find&replace, ^G goto, shift+cursors selects text.
Which is the model I use in the console text editor I wrote for my own use: http://hisham.hm/dit/
(Incidentally, I am _also_ a Dvorak user! How many of us Dvorak-users-with-homegrown-editors are there?)
