Not having the gnu emacs keys pre-configured is a real problem for the
developers at my company. We have decided to use Eclipse instead. We
believe that this is a very important feature missing from Netbeans.  I
wish someone with fix this.

Note that, though hackish, this is semi doable already via a module.  We're doing 
something like this for Apple keybindings.

Comment 3 Charlie Hunt 2005-01-10 20:19:29 UTC

There are 5 different issues related to vi / vim / emacs / other
keybindings and similar editor functionality support. Those are being
consolidated into enhancement issue 12858.
