I think we can assume that a serial connection will be 115k or so. > Not worrying about these things means we don't complicate the code with > lots of optimizations for how much we output, or using fancy ANSI > escapes for scrolling existing text and such.

Basically, "vi" and "less" are my two initial use cases for this. Emacs ain't in posix. If it's a really trivial additional binding (basically a .config file), fine. But I personally will never use it, and no standard requires it. Rob -- GNU/Linux isn't: Linux=GPLv2, GNU=GPLv3+, they can't share code. Either it's "mere aggregation", or a license violation.
