rob is right in that chording is a short cut.

forsyth is right in that those who use it will get a shock when
they move from acme to other user interfaces and that the
addition of chording may indicate a useability problem with
the current interface.

i've always thought that acme had some neat ideas in it, but
i'm a sam-ite.  use the tools that suit you for the job.
