Run acme.  put 'mk' on the menubar.  click mk.

:)

I can't remember wether there's an acme in the pcdist;
I'd have to look.

I have to admit I haven't felt the loss of not having
working arrow keys.  Shouldn't be hard to fix I would
think, but I personally haven't found the need.  Clicking
on the scrollbar and clicking on the target worked fine.

It was somewhat surprising to find they didn't work
the first time around :)
