Of course drscheme dosn't use ssh stdin/stdout :) <br><br>I'm refering to the idea that we are creating a new keybinding standard, and if it takes off, and people who edit using emacs want to use it, they will have to choose a differnt key. It'll essentially make it harder for people to use drscheme some of the time and emacs some of the time. It dosn't matter much at the moment, but I wanted to bring it up before people got used to something. (note: I for one use emacs for plt progams whenever I can't load the graphics interface of drscheme. (like i'm in via ssh, or I don't have X loaded on a webserver)
