why not just hack rio and see how well it works out? put the patch
somewhere for others to try. hacked a new piemenu patch that
allows sub menus (have put the hidden windows in a sub menu so that
the positions of the items in the pie doesnt change depending on the
hidden windows) and compacter layout algo.
so just do it...
i would prefer when the arrow keys start a new instance of
games/catclock btw. mutch more convinient :) for scrolling you
can use the mouse... this is mutch more consitant.... keyboard
should be for text and catclocks!

Hi,
I am new to Plan9. This request sounds quite simple/naive. Don't think that
I dislike the Plan9 ways. I enjoy it a lot. But it doesn't mean that it
needs no improvement/fix, right?
OK, here is my suggestion. We shall fix the use of Up/Dn arrows, I mean,
instead of using it to go one page up/dn, use it to move the cursor up/dn
one line. Here are two reasons for this:
1. We use Lf/Rt arrows to move the cursor, don't we? Then use Up/Dn to do
the same kind of task is symmetric, and thus more reasonable.
2. We already have PageUp/PageDown keys which do the task of paging up/dn,
and symmetrically, Home/End to move to the first and last page.
