This doesn't make any sense. You're used to, and want to keep, the  
emacs keyboard UI, but want something other than emacs? Honestly  
there's nothing. There really isn't. If you want something with emacs  
keystrokes you're looking for emacs.

Ok so there's a few things that pretend to have emacs-like  
keystrokes, but really there isn't anything with proper emacs-like  
keystrokes to a decent level. Not in an IDE format anyway. So spend a  
while configuring emacs to be an IDE if that's what you want. Really.

Yup, it really sucks, doesn't it. This is why people buy Macs ;-)
