On the FP side there is Yi[0] The trick that Yi uses is quite clever and not very complicated: keyboard input is passed to a lexer/parser which can be rewritten to provide alternative bindings. Treating keyboard events like that actually makes a lot of sense. It is not very specific to any programming paradigm and could be implemented in C (with a recursive descent parser if yacc is deemed to suck to much).
