I haven't reported anything yet as I've got a few more questions.

Does that file get installed as part of the v371 installer? I see
keymap.ss but not keybindings.ss.

That would probably be easier.

When I look at the active keybindings it is sort of confusing to me. I
guess I look to that to understand what DrScheme has to offer. Then I
see 17 entries for "do-return" and I'm left sort of wondering "Why?".
Perhaps this is the wrong place to look?

It looks like there are commands to insert Greek characters, but there
are only bindings for the Mac option key? I want to look some place to
find out "This is how you use DrScheme". Again maybe I'm looking in
the wrong place, but navigating between the editor and the repl is
such a big value add, I don't want people to miss it. I would be happy
to have a go at writing something up in addition to finding broken
mappings.

Regarding broken mappings, am I to assume that the only mappings
present should show up in "active keybindings"?
