   I have one HOWEVER I am reluctant to release it for general use until I
   find out exactly how to stop an ESC from being eaten by a search command.

   The problem is, let's say you do a search...and then failing to find 
   anything you want to use the cursor keys. The darn thing eats the ESC
   character (I think it wants to use that character to signify end of 
   searching) and then the rest of the keycode shows gleefully up in
   your edited file. 

   So (noting the Followup-To line) if anyone has any authoritative or 
   informative ideas on how to fix this (or if it is even fixable) then
   I'll post or mail or whatever is appropriate my AT386.el file.

I would be interested in receiving this upon fix and availability.....
Sounds Great!

Thanks,
Steve Ginn
