I guess one problem is deciding what the key should do that it does not
do now. My understanding is that it aborts loading of a html page fine,
but in the DOS version it does not break out of a hung "html request
sent - waiting for reply". It doesn't break out of a hung nameserver
lookup, but I don't think that it does in any platform where you can't
use NSL_FORK. I haven't looked at either problem. Are there other
problems with its functionality? How do you think "z" should work in
DOS?
