would it be utter sacrilege and or a complete waste of time 
to add some acme features to samterm like:

1. sharing the snarf buffer with the window system.
2. cording

i've been thinking about this for a while, but haven't gotten 
to it.

maybe the answer is "use acme, then". but often i want sam.
it's a lot easier to do some complicated, scripted editing
with sam than anything else. i like having a terminal-like
window for editing.

but since i use acme most of the time, i really grind the 
mental gears switching back.

maybe what i want is (warning: this idea is half baked)
editing stripped out of acme and sam run in windows that 
contain files.

btw, this command with acme

     x:0x....: |tr 'A-Z' 'a-z'

gave me "addresses out of order". sam was happy with it. 
the text i had selected was like this:

     {0x00AA, 0x00AA, "whatever",},
     {0x00BB, 0x00BB, "whatever2",},
