Oh, please, *everybody* using UNIX in the 1985-1995 timeframe has hjkl
bound to muscle memory because of nethack.

Then there are some of us that used vi on a qwerty keyboard, then switched
to Dvorak! Now, that's a learning curve! Talk about muscle memory, the only
keys that are the same between keyboards is a, m and h - other than numbers,
most punc and the function keys.
