Hehe, reminds me of how surprised I was when I first started using bash and 
found it was recognizing Emacs commands.

BTW, as a relatively fast touch typist, I find the keyboard response in the 
BF client pretty woeful, with it dropping characters rather than accepting 
typeahead. Any chance you can have the UI guys fix that? And also allow 
keyboard dismissal of dialogs (ie. tab, enter and escape). This is 
particularly important in the console, with the long command names taking 
awhile to type if one slows down to avoid losing chars.

It would be fine with me if the FPS dropped substantially when a typing 
prompt was visible, so I could get the string typed quickly and out of the 
way.
