Dan, it looks like an interestin app. Don't mean to sound unappreciative, but I am restricted in the kinds of solutions I can pursue because most of time, I'm in a locked down environment. It took moving heaven and earth to get vim. If it was a simple switch in vim to avoid the window shift problem, that'd be do-able. Anything else....it's could be remotely possible, but pushing for it could be a full time job. I think I better get use to reaching for the mouse. Thanks anyway.
