Thanks...

Alas, Pine does not support remapping the keys.

It would be a pain to do it right, wouldn't it?  Maybe not too hard
to hack it in, maybe if I'm bored sometime next century.  :)

Well, I can help a little.  Being a Pine evangelist myself, I've
written or helped to encourage elm --> pine conversions.

I've made the two patches I've written available on the web.  I'll
be updating them more in the next couple days or so.

	enable-vi-keys	
	    maps 	'j' to 'n'
			'k' to 'p'
			'/' to 'w'

	    It's not the cleanest patch because you lose Journal and Keyboard
	    lock, but it's good enough for me.

	ctrlw

	    Makes the "word erase" Ctrl-W work in the Composer; that is,
	    when you are editing your Headers.

	elmtopine

	    I encouraged my friend/student worker to write this.  It
	    converts Elm aliases to Pine aliases.  I'll make it available
	    once I've talked to him and worked out some issues concerning
	    blowing away the existing .addressbook :)

If you're interested, they are at:

Cheers.
