Interesting.

I think I might be I interested if I weren’t a vi-mapping kinda guy. The ubiquity is good.

I use vi frequently, but I would be interested if the Wordstar mappings provide a speed benefit. They do seem to be easier to type.

You can do hjkl -> arrows, and some other stuff. But it's extremely arcane.

You can see it here[1], it works together with us-internationl layout which I happen to use, and it has some other stuff crammed in too (ctrl+j/k -> ctrl+pageup/pagedown, and some specific symbols).
