I know that some of you will really hate me about this, but I patched sandy to have command and insert mode.
More patches will follow with actual vim bindings (yank, paste, etc.) if I don't get flamed :P I'll work on them this week. Can anyone help me read the escape key without the 1s delay? BTW: Beautiful, well commented code :) Very good job! I keep my branch at: http://git.dzervas.gr/sandy if anyone is interested.
