Oh my freaking God. Is that "usable", "simple", "it just works". I'm
still parsing what I should do to change key bindings in Firefox.
So, to be sure it reads my resource file I should first do some "ps -
kill -9" commands? No, I can't believe it.
BTW, I'm a vim user. What's the "emacs' style"? :-)

BTW, I'm a vim user. What's the "emacs' style"? :-)I'm a vi/vim user myself but I frequently use CNTRL-U in the shell in
order to clear the command line and I want to do the same in the firefox
location bar. But the default binding for CNTRL-U in firefox is "view the
HTML source" which drives me nuts if I hit it by accident. And, believe
me, I'm not the only one here, most of my coworkers complained about
that. Maybe it appeases the Windows crowd (which we don't have here
except for our secretaries and they're not used to keybindings at all,
they just point and click with the mouse) but it drives UNIX users
insane.
